What is Rapid7 MDR?

Standing up an effective detection and response program isn’t as simple as buying and implementing the latest security products. It requires a dedicated SOC, staffed with highly skilled and specialized security experts, and 24/7 vigilance using the best technology to ensure stealthy attackers have nowhere to hide. Creating such a program can be expensive, difficult to maintain, and provides limited assurance that you’ve advanced your overall security. Rapid7 MDR is built from the ground up to help security teams of all sizes and security experiences strengthen their security posture, find attackers, and stay ahead of emerging threats. Our MDR service uses a combination of security expertise and technology to detect dynamic threats quickly across your entire ecosystem, providing the hands-on, 24/7/365 monitoring, proactive threat hunting*, effective response support, and tailored security guidance needed to stop nefarious activity and help you accelerate your security maturity.

We've filled in crucial gaps we had with our previous solution. This was a key factor in choosing Rapid7 during the selection process. The ROI is already starting to show, too. We saw specific cost reductions. We used to pay extra for external user insight and availability management in our old setup. Now, that's all included in Rapid7, which saves us money and simplifies management.

It is a good solution. It's not a black box. Our security operations center has similar access to the console that we have access to. It's very open. The product has automation workflows. It has around 5000 detections in it. I trust the solution. The product is continuously developing. Whenever something new comes out, the product is upgraded. We can also bring in community threat feeds. The product allows us to customize our alerts. Log query searching has come a long way. It doesn’t require us to code anymore. We can just type in what we are looking for. We can also deploy our agents. The good thing about agents is that we can use the automation workflow to disable user accounts. We can also make it disable and quarantine an asset. These features are provided right out of the box. The workflows do not cost us more money.

This capability is crucial for reducing unnecessary alerts and ensuring that responses are targeted and efficient. Additionally, Rapid7's MDR service extends beyond just incident response. It includes features for vulnerability assessment and vulnerability management, which are essential for proactive security measures.
