Rapid7 Unites Risk and Threat Detection in the Cloud at AWS re

Invent 2022

Rapid7 launches a series of new cloud security capabilities that make cloud detection and response simpler and more effective.

BOSTON, Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rapid7, Inc. (Nasdaq: RPD), a leader in cloud risk and threat detection, is showcasing several new capabilities that significantly simplify cloud detection and response (CDR) and vulnerability assessment this week at Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent 2022 in Las Vegas.

Organizations across all industries are migrating to the cloud at an unprecedented pace to support innovation, scale, and digital transformation. Without purpose-built risk assessment and threat detection in the cloud, organizations will struggle to effectively secure their businesses across a modern attack surface.

“Now, more than ever, security teams need to stay on their toes,” said Lee Weiner, Senior Vice President of Cloud Security and Chief Innovation Officer at Rapid7. “They need to continuously monitor an increasingly complex threat landscape in real time, while securely scaling their cloud footprint in line with their business needs. By uniting cloud risk and threat detection, Rapid7 is delivering enhanced scale and time-to-value, helping customers secure their businesses with both speed and precision.”

At AWS re:Invent 2022, Rapid7 is demonstrating new capabilities on the Insight Platform that make it easier to provide an added layer to manage risks and eliminate threats on AWS:

• Agentless vulnerability assessment gives security teams robust, continuous visibility into the vulnerabilities that exist in their cloud environment, without having to install anything onto individual machines.
• Cloud detection and response capabilities natively identify suspicious events in real time and consolidate third-party threat findings to more accurately and effectively alert security teams of active threats in their environment.

“Combined, these new capabilities and integrations solve our customers’ biggest cloud security pain points,” Weiner said. “These innovations deliver a unique value proposition that combines our agentless approach, real-time visibility, and rich unified context so customers can more effectively operationalize their cloud security programs.”
