Rapid7, Inc., a pioneer in AI-powered managed cybersecurity operations, announced new cloud security capabilities within Exposure Command, its industry-pioneer exposure management solution. The introduction of runtime validation and Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) enables organisations to identify, validate, and prioritise exploitable risk based on real-world attack paths and business impact.

As organisations scale hybrid and multi-cloud environments, security programs must move beyond reactive models built on assessment alone. With runtime validation and DSPM, Rapid7 advances Exposure Command from continuous assessment to continuous validation, enabling proactive exposure reduction across hybrid environments. Runtime validation determines which vulnerabilities and misconfigurations are actively exploitable, while DSPM provides critical context by mapping sensitive data and identity access to real-world attack paths that increase risk.
