BOSTON, June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, Rapid7, Inc. (NASDAQ: RPD), a leader in threat detection and exposure management, announced that agentic AI workflows are now embedded within Rapid7\u2019s next-gen SIEM and XDR platform to fundamentally change how threats in MDR customer environments are investigated in the SOC. Leveraging Rapid7\u2019s AI Engine<\/u><\/a>, agentic AI autonomously performs foundational investigative tasks with the rigor and expertise of a SOC analyst, but at AI speeds. This empowers analysts to perform deeper analysis, shorten investigation cycles, and ultimately solve security problems faster for customers.<\/p>\n

As AI accelerates<\/u><\/a> the threat landscape<\/u><\/a>, enabling attackers to launch faster, more personalized, and harder-to-detect campaigns, organizations need an MDR experience that scales to meet the demands of their environment and the broader attacker landscape while providing direct visibility into decisions. The new agentic AI workflows in Rapid7 MDR address the demand for scale, speed and transparency, incorporating Rapid7\u2019s industry-leading AI automation for alert triage, which closes benign alerts with 99.93% accuracy and saves 200+ SOC hours per week.<\/p>\n

\u201cAI isn\u2019t just an enhancement to security operations, it\u2019s a catalyst for a new era of scale, speed, and strategic decision-making. At Rapid7, we believe AI must be human-centric, transparent and accountable, and built on analyst expertise,\u201d said Laura Ellis, vice president of AI and data at Rapid7. \u201cThe launch of agentic AI workflows for MDR represents the foundational step in our broader vision for agentic AI across the platform. Far more than just automation, this is the beginning of a system capable of intelligent and adaptive decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n

Agentic AI workflows are trained on playbooks designed by Rapid7\u2019s own SOC experts, and refined through continuous real-world application, ultimately delivering<\/u><\/a>:<\/p>\n
