Title of the video
InsightVM allows the user to understand
business risk in the context of their entire
digital environment, prioritise their focus,
and report on findings to both technical and
non-technical stakeholders. “Not every asset
is created equal; your payroll systems should
probably be considered more critical than
an individual laptop,” continues Sitcawich.
“InsightVM translates that security risk into
business risk and helps our customers look at
key metrics to track success.” InsightAppSec,
Grangard explains, is similar: the highest-
rated DAST (dynamic application security
testing) solution according to Gartner for
three consecutive years, InsightAppSec
automatically assesses web applications
to identify common vulnerabilities. “When
developing the product we thought, ‘How
can we help test, monitor and ultimately
prevent the exploitation of vulnerabilities
or weaknesses at the application layer?’ A
lot of components from our InsightAppSec
and tCell products come into play here:
InsightAppSec brings testing and monitoring
together so that clients can understand how
their apps are being attacked in real-time.”
When it comes to designing and
implementing a quality vulnerability risk
management strategy, time is one of the
most important factors to consider, not
just in ‘speed of response’ terms but also
overall focus. Rapid7’s five-point process
(identification, assessment, prioritisation,
remediation, and measuring progress) aims
to reduce risk through greater environmental
visibility and prioritisation acuity, “Everyone“ One of the key takeaways is
the importance of securing
every layer of your modern
attack surface”VICTORIA SITCAWICH
