I am sure you are constantly getting emails from companies touting their differentiators and how their approach is the superior way to solve a problem. We see this quite a lot in the security industry, where technology is too often dubbed a 'silver bullet' for detecting attacks without asking if you have the right people to use it.
At Rapid7, our approach is to understand the problem as best as we can and design solutions to address them. This involves pairing our product teams with our services teams to learn from customers and practitioners that work with our customers in the field.
An example of collaboration between these key groups is seen with our teams that deliver our Managed Incident Detection & Response (IDR) service and our InsightIDR product. Rather than send you a bunch of product literature, I wanted to share two stories to help your team with the security battle and Gartner's take on Managed Detection and Response.

Lee Weiner, Chief Product Officer, Rapid7
