VENDOR SPOTLIGHT: rThreat

05/14/21 • 35 min

In a break from the norm, this week we're focussing purely on a single vendor that recently joined our portfolio: rThreat. We're delighted to be joined by Dany Applegate, their Co-Founder and Head of Marketing.
rThreat specialises in Breach and Attack Emulation (BAE - see episode 12), allowing companies to safely detonate REAL known and unknown malware into your endpoints and networks. The capability couldn't be a more perfect fit for our continuing mission to enable companies to achieve a Permanent State of Readiness.
How else are you going to be able to validate your investment in your cybersecurity defences without testing them with REAL-world malware?!
