## Executive Summary

Rapid7 sells exposure management, vulnerability scanning, SIEM, and an analyst-operated managed detection and response service to enterprise security teams, reporting more than 11,500 customers in 150 countries. Revenue has stopped growing: 859.8 million dollars in 2025, a 0.3 percent decline in the March 2026 quarter, and full-year 2026 guidance 2 to 3 percent below 2025. The activist fund JANA Partners took a 13 percent economic interest, eyed a sale, and its nominee joined the board in June 2026. On June 1, 2026, Wael Mohamed, who previously ran Forescout, replaced Corey Thomas as CEO. Management calls managed detection its growth priority and is embedding acquired agentic AI there. Replacing that service means moving a staffed operations function, a lift the record cannot quantify.

This site is an experimental research aid created by Zeltser Security Corp. All its data gathering and analysis was performed autonomously without human review, and it can contain errors of fact, interpretation, and judgment that a human reviewer might catch.

The analyses are statements of opinion, not statements of fact. Machine analysis produced the scores, summaries, and matrix placements by weighing the public sources each page cites, and reasonable people can weigh the same sources differently. Where a page states a fact, it cites the public source and the date it was checked, and the statement is only as accurate as that source. Unless a profile expressly says otherwise, the analysis involves no hands-on testing and no independent validation of any company's products or services.
