What is Exposure Command?
Exposure Command is the Rapid7 platform for exposure management: insight into every place where your organisation is vulnerable. It brings vulnerabilities on your systems, your external attack surface, cloud environments and applications together in one risk picture.
Attackers combine weak spots in cloud, network and applications. Exposure Command shows which vulnerabilities can really be reached, so you prioritise what carries the most risk.
What is included?
- InsightVM: the vulnerability scanner that finds vulnerabilities within your network.
- Surface Command: sees your organisation the way an attacker sees it from the outside.
- Active Patching: fixes vulnerabilities automatically with patches and configurations, based on Automox.
- Cloud and application security: in the more extensive package.
Rapid7 offers Exposure Command in packages. Essentials combines InsightVM with attack surface management. Ultimate adds cloud and application security.
How Brandaris uses Exposure Command
We use Exposure Command to answer the question: how vulnerable are we today, and what do we fix first?
- Baseline assessment: a first picture of vulnerabilities inside and the attack surface outside.
- Prioritising: we translate the findings into a short list of what really matters, in plain language.
- Follow-up: we monitor progress and report to IT, management or the auditor.
- Linking: with Incident Command or MDR, so detection knows which systems are vulnerable.
Who is it for?
Mainly for larger organisations with multiple locations, cloud environments or requirements from NIS2 and ISO 27001. It helps make risks demonstrable and measurable.
