Rapid7 Named Most Valuable Partner of the Year by Intel Security Innovation Alliance
December 06 2016 - 9:05AM
Rapid7, Inc. (NASDAQ:RPD), a leading provider of data analytics
solutions for IT and security professionals, today announced it was
named Most Valuable Partner of the Year by the Intel Security
Innovation Alliance; Rapid7 was also a finalist for Most Innovative
Partner of the Year. The winners were announced at the Intel
Security Innovation Alliance Developers Conference, which takes
place in conjunction with the Intel Security FOCUS conference.
Rapid7 was selected for creating new product integrations that
provide greater security against new, sophisticated security
threats, and cyber attacks.
On November 3, Rapid7 announced that its live vulnerability
management solution, Nexpose, is fully integrated and compatible
with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) and McAfee Data Exchange
Layer (DXL). By integrating Nexpose to both McAfee ePO and McAfee
DXL, mutual customers now have always-on vulnerability management,
visibility into their endpoints and entire IT environments, and the
ability to prioritize remediation to maximize impact. The
integrations will help organizations break down communication
barriers between IT and security teams to collaboratively reduce
the risk of a breach.
“The integrated solutions provided by Intel Security and Rapid7
allow customers to streamline their IT and security programs, and
can lead to decreased costs for interoperability and increased
protection throughout the entire threat defense lifecycle,” said
D.J. Long, head of the Intel Security Innovation Alliance. "Rapid7
is a strong contributor to the growing Intel Security Innovation
Alliance ecosystem, and we have been consistently impressed with
their vision and commitment to delivering innovative solutions that
make a difference for our customers.”
“We are honored to accept this award from the Intel Security
team and believe deeply in the mission our teams have set out to
achieve together,” said Lee Weiner, chief product officer at
Rapid7. “Together, we are working to create solutions that deliver
actionable results, effectively integrate across common platforms,
and improve organizations’ security posture. Intel Security is
creating common ground for its partners and helping the industry
better meet customer needs."
Through Nexpose integrations with both McAfee ePO and McAfee
DXL, mutual customers will have extended visibility into each asset
on their network, increasing the ability to manage risk with
automated responses to threats, including malicious file
infections. Nexpose provides live vulnerability monitoring,
allowing customers to automatically collect data and analyze
network exposure as it changes. Using this data, Nexpose
prioritizes risk based on customer environments and attacker
behavior, and then streamlines remediation by aligning IT and
security workflows.
Additional integrations with Nexpose include McAfee Enterprise
Security Manager (ESM) and McAfee Threat Intelligence Exchange
(TIE). Rapid7 is also undertaking additional integrations with key
Intel Security technologies to further invest in its strategic
partnership.
