In today’s threat landscape, security teams face a harsh reality: attackers never rest, and defenders are stretched thin. As threats grow in volume, speed, and sophistication, the pressure on SOC teams is reaching a breaking point. That’s why we’re launching our new Managed Detection and Response (MDR) campaign with one simple truth: you may be outnumbered, but with Rapid7 MDR, you are never outmatched.
The MDR problem statement
The need for MDR has never been clearer. Security leaders are navigating a perfect storm of alert fatigue, talent shortages, and increasingly complex hybrid environments. Attackers are moving faster, using automation and AI to scale their operations. Meanwhile, internal teams struggle to triage thousands of alerts, stay ahead of threats, and prove the value of their efforts.
According to Gartner, 60% of businesses will rely on MDR services by 2025 to extend their SOC’s reach (1). But not all MDR is created equal. Many services stop short at detection or pass off alerts without context. Rapid7 MDR goes further.
What makes Rapid7 MDR different
Rapid7 MDR delivers 24/7, expert-led detection and response across every layer of your environment, from endpoint to cloud, identity to network. Our AI-powered triage cuts through alert noise with 99.93% accuracy, giving analysts time back to focus on real threats. Our global SOC actively investigates and contains attacks in real time, while our platform integrates cleanly with your existing SIEM and XDR workflows. With named advisors guiding your strategy and total visibility into our operations, you get more than alerts. You get a partner that thinks like an attacker and acts like an extension of your team.
It’s MDR that thinks like an attacker, but acts like a teammate.

Why it matters now
Cybercrime is scaling like a business. AI-powered attacks, ransomware-as-a-service, and identity-based breaches are no longer edge cases. They’re everyday threats. And most teams can’t fight back alone.
Rapid7 MDR was built to close the gap between signal and response, risk and action, burnout and resilience.
