Exposure Command Overview

Exposure Command extends the power of Surface Command, combining the power of complete attack surface visibility with high-fidelity risk context and insight into your organization’s security posture, aggregating findings from both our native exposure detection capabilities as well as third-party exposure and enrichment sources you’ve already got in place. This situational awareness enables teams to focus on the exposures and vulnerabilities that attackers have in their sights with the threat-aware risk context needed to prioritize more efficiently and effectively.

Exposure Command goes beyond monitoring and asset inventory mapping, enriching telemetry with compliance and risk findings from Rapid7’s entire set of exposure management capabilities. Combined, on-prem vulnerability management, cloud security, and application testing enable security and risk management teams to shift from reactive to proactive, continuously assessing your attack surface, validating exposures and providing actionable remediation guidance that takes into account existing downstream controls and the blast radius of a potential compromise. Native, no-code automation ensures teams operationalize their exposure management programs efficiently, with more than 450+ out-of-the-box integrations with popular security and ITOps tools.
