Rapid7 InsightVM Goes Beyond Vulnerability Assessment to Deliver 342% ROI According to Leading Independent Research Firm
Study reveals InsightVM has improved scanning efficacy and accuracy, easier reporting, and better-defined approaches to remediation than other vulnerability risk management solutions providing clarity, influence and progress to customers.
BOSTON, Dec. 03, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- . (NASDAQ: RPD), a leading provider of security analytics and automation, today announced findings from a new commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Rapid7 quantifying the Total Economic Impact™ and benefits of , the company’s vulnerability risk management offering. In the study, Forrester found that organizations that deploy InsightVM can recognize a 342 percent return on investment (ROI) over three years.
InsightVM provides visibility into vulnerabilities across today’s modern IT environments, as well as clarity into the operations, objectives, and impact of security programs for stakeholders across the organization. Additionally, security teams are able to effectively identify, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities while extending their influence, resulting in a deeper understanding of risk and alignment toward common goals. By fostering collaboration and influencing their peers in IT and development, security professionals can achieve a more efficient vulnerability risk management process and reduce more risk.
Security Finance, a Rapid7 customer and participant in the TEI study, assessed several vulnerability management products before selecting InsightVM. "With vulnerabilities, it all comes down to risk,” said Kurt Hazel, IT Security Manager at Security Finance. “CVSS scores were a problem because they're static. The InsightVM Real Risk scoring has allowed me to prioritize for what matters to our specific business.”
Key Findings
The Forrester TEI study highlights many quantifiable benefits achieved by a company using InsightVM, which in the study is based on a composite of five Rapid7 customers interviewed by Forrester.
