This is the first IDC SIEM MarketScape to bring the enterprise and SMB markets into a single evaluation, and we believe it arrives at a time when the way teams buy and run a SOC is changing quickly. Security teams are no longer evaluating detection and response in isolation. They want their threat data, automation, and view of the attack surface working together, rather than spread across a stack of disconnected tools.
We believe Incident Command reflects that shift by bringing threat data, automation, and attack surface context into one platform instead of leaving teams to work across disconnected tools. It also speaks to a broader change in security operations, where context matters more, speed matters more, and teams need a clearer path from alert to action. That same direction runs through Rapid7’s wider point of view on preemptive security: exposure, detection, and response work better when they inform each other through shared context, AI, and human expertise.
Incident Command brings SIEM, SOAR, attack surface management, and threat intelligence together on a shared data model. That gives analysts access to asset risk, vulnerability data, and exposure context during an investigation, so they can understand whether a detection affects a high-risk, internet-facing asset without having to jump between separate products.
According to the IDC MarketScape, “Incident Command is a strong fit for midmarket to enterprise organizations that want a fully integrated security operations platform with predictable costs.”
The teams we talk to are tired of stitching tools together and dealing with surprise ingestion bills. They want fewer blind spots, faster investigations, and a clearer answer to what is urgent and what to do next. Incident Command addresses that by bringing exposure context, threat intelligence, and response automation into the SIEM workflow, helping teams investigate faster and act with more clarity. For organizations looking for additional managed coverage, Rapid7 MDR is available as a separate offering. As attacks move faster and environments become harder to manage, security operations work better when exposure, threat, and response data are connected through an open platform that gives teams the context they need to move with more speed and clarity.
Many vendors talk about AI in the SOC. For customers, the more important question is how those capabilities are developed, tested, and refined so they are useful in real investigations rather than just sounding good in a product story. We believe the IDC MarketScape called out what that means in Rapid7’s case:
“AI models and automation capabilities are tested in the MDR SOC before release to product customers, providing a feedback loop between managed service outcomes and product development that organizations without their own MDR equivalent cannot replicate.”
Our MDR analysts work real incidents across thousands of customer environments every day. The detections, triage models, and automation that come out of that work are tested against live attacks before they reach product customers. That feedback loop helps make the AI Engine more useful in practice by handling repetitive work such as classifying alerts, compiling evidence, and surfacing next steps, while analysts spend their time on the decisions that actually require human judgment. That balance also reflects Rapid7’s broader platform story: AI-powered, backed by human expertise.
The 2026 IDC MarketScape is a useful signal of where the market is heading. Organizations are looking for platforms where exposure and detection inform each other instead of living in separate systems, and where AI helps teams move faster without removing the human judgment needed to make the right call. We believe that is very much in line with the platform Rapid7 has been building through Incident Command and the wider Command Platform story. We’ll continue investing in the AI Engine, deeper attack surface context, and the integrations customers rely on. The goal remains straightforward: help defenders move faster to keep their environment safe, investigate with more context, and respond with machine speed and confidence.
