I've been using Rapid7 Metasploit to create vulnerabilities and test exploits. I can create malicious Word documents through the Rapid7 Metasploit framework for testing purposes. I can create a backdoor through the solution to test a web server or a vulnerable machine.
We use the solution to detect and prevent attacks. Penetration testing aims to prove vulnerabilities. The vulnerability scanning results provide key IDs that can be explored using tools like Rapid7 Metasploit.
We are using the solution to assess vulnerabilities. We have aligned the solution with our information assets, such as the multiple plants we have. We have aligned Rapid7 Metasploit with the IP addresses, given the range of the IPs, and we scan it by using this Rapid7 Metasploit to identify vulnerabilities. We do this on a quarterly basis, but if any critical vulnerabilities, such as zero days, are identified, we immediately remediate them or take action until the patch has been deployed.

The last use case is for customers that want to use the features of Metasploit, for phishing detection. We give awareness about phishing on their email accounts in the organization.

I used the community edition. It's a very handy and powerful product. For a free product, the capabilities are absolutely astonishing. I used Rapid7 Metasploit as a marketing solution. I was working as a security expert and whenever I would meet a client as a consultant or a freelancer, I would open my laptop and start using the software. Rapid7 Metasploit is a standalone solution, intended to be used by one person, but it can be used by a few people in a team — maybe 10 people or less.

We are a solution provider and we offer a variety of services that include security and vulnerability management. Rapid7 Metasploit is one of the products that we use to identify vulnerabilities. Specifically, Metasploit is for penetration testing. It uses models to check for exploitable vulnerabilities, and if one is detected then we would raise the importance of solving the problem. We normally operate Metasploit at the client site, which helps us to explore and assess the vulnerabilities directly in the environment.
Attackers are always developing new exploits and attack methods—Metasploit penetration testing software helps you use their own weapons against them. Utilizing an ever-growing database of exploits, you can safely simulate real-world attacks on your network to train your security team to spot and stop the real thing.

Our use case is for penetration testing.
I use it for scanning purposes, particularly focusing on systems Rapid7 Exposed or managed through Rapid7 InsightVM.
The solution is used for process automation and tracking testing in OMS.
We use Metasploit for penetration testing. Three to five testers use it annually.
I use the solution for the validation of vulnerability.
