Rapid7 unveils new cloud security capabilities within Exposure Command

Rapid7 has introduced new cloud security capabilities within Exposure Command, its exposure management solution.

The new features include continuous visibility at runtime - analysing live cloud workloads and validating which vulnerabilities and misconfigurations are actively exploitable - and continuous monitoring of AI-driven workloads, detecting and neutralising deviations in highly complex, unpredictable cloud environments.

It also includes the ability to initiate automated remediation actions once a threat is detected and validated, as well as aligning sensitive data intelligence with attacker reachability to continuously discover and classify sensitive data and map identity access across cloud, SaaS, and hybrid environments. 

Together, runtime validation and DSPM enhance Exposure Command’s ability to identify and prioritise exploitable risk, enabling organisations to continuously detect and remediate active exposures before they become legitimate threats, the company claims.

“True cloud risk happens at the intersection of vulnerabilities, identities, and sensitive data in production,” said Craig Adams, chief product officer at Rapid7.

“By embedding runtime validation and data context into Exposure Command, we enable security teams to identify the exposures that pose the greatest risk and prioritise remediation earlier, strengthening resilience before those risks translate into breach impact.”
