Security operations teams are underserved. Impactful outcomes are few and far between and cost more than expected. Hundreds of security vendors build solutions for 1% of companies who have 10x more of everything, yet still get breached. The security gap grows wider daily; security operations teams deserve better.
At Rapid7, we can close the gap by serving customers intentionally. We choose to believe:
The status quo maintains the gap, so we challenge convention
Every company is unique - we deliver extensible, adaptable solutions enabling the outcomes matching the customer's needs
There is strength in numbers, so we provide tools to security, IT, compliance and business partners to make an impact together
Security needs champions, so we advocate for security within corporations, governments and beyond
Attackers are relentless, so our job is never done
