Boston, MA — July 13, 2020

Rapid7, Inc. (NASDAQ: RPD), a leading provider of security analytics and automation, today announced that the company was named a Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). As of May 31, Rapid7 received a 4.5 (out of 5) rating from verified customer reviews for its SIEM solution, InsightIDR.

InsightIDR is a cloud-native SIEM that can be rapidly deployed and is designed to quickly detect and investigate sophisticated attacks.

InsightIDR also incorporates intelligence from Rapid7’s managed services experts and security research teams to ensure customers understand the threats they face and can prioritize which ones matter most. 

The Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction is based on the ratings and reviews written by security and IT professionals and technology decision-makers who have experience purchasing, implementing and/or using the product. Customers often cite InsightIDR’s simplicity and ease-of-use as a top benefit of the solution, as well as its ability to minimize false positives and integrate with a number of vendors and cloud services.
