Continuous security scanning has reduced vulnerabilities and strengthens our web applications
Rapid7 Exposure Command offers several best features, including the ability to schedule scans, staying up to date with current vulnerabilities, and providing trustworthy results. It is also easy to set up scans for different applications, and the platform provides recommendations on how to fix vulnerabilities. Additionally, I can replay the attacks that Rapid7 Exposure Command ran so I can see exactly where the vulnerability is located and what kind of attack it represents, showcasing the thorough information the platform provides. Regarding Rapid7 Exposure Command's AI features, I find that it runs itself once it is set up. While I did not set it up myself, I run scans, let it operate, view results, and find fixes for the identified vulnerabilities. It truly runs itself and provides the information needed to help us be a more secure company. I believe the accuracy and reliability of the output from Rapid7 Exposure Command are quite good, and the information we receive is accurate. However, there have been instances where a vulnerability appears as a false positive due to protocols or security configurations that our service provider has in place, which are not visible from our end. While vulnerabilities may appear present, it does not necessarily mean they truly are vulnerable, and it is helpful to know what needs to be handled by our service provider rather than remaining in the dark about potential issues.
