Extended support to enforce your Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM) in a single platform

Extended support to enforce your Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM) in a single platform

Rapid7 provides vulnerability scanning through InsightVM, but for complete guidance and cluster visibility customers must purchase a separate solution: InsightCloudSec.

Runecast provides automated checks against Kubernetes CIS benchmarks, CISA Kubernetes Hardening Guide and BSI IT Grundschutz, as well as vulnerability scanning to ensure visibility into container issues that may lead to potential breaches.

Avoid information silos in your organization by adopting a single source of truth

The Rapid7 Insight platform contains six separate solutions and dashboards. It is a high-quality vulnerability scanner, but not a CNAPP like Runecast.

Runecast provides a single source of truth for DevOps, SecOps, and DevSecOps teams, streamlining reporting, analysis, remediation and adoption of security standards and best practices across the entire environment.

Audit your hybrid cloud continuously with automated best practices analysis

Audit your hybrid cloud continuously with automated best practices analysis

Rapid7 doesn´t provide automated best practices scanning for compliance with industry best practices.

Runecast maintains a database of the latest AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, VMware, SAP HANA, and Pure Storage on vSphere, and vSphere on Nutanix Best Practices and provides custom-tailored scripts to remediate issues found.

Stay audit ready by automating configuration drift monitoring

Rapid7 doesn’t include any capability that allows users to track the changes made on their infrastructure and avoid configuration drift.

Runecast allows users to create baselines to check historical drift in the environment between two selected points in time, along with who made any changes to provide accountability.
