Impact #1	The partnership with Rapid7 has allowed Modine to stop threats early and fast. Regular full scans on its systems and networks around the globe enable the security team to quickly assess, prioritize, and patch systems before an attacker can exploit a vulnerability. The Rapid7 team's expertise and the automation capabilities of the solutions have saved Modine a significant amount of time, allowing them to focus on strategic aspects of their security program. The company has also been able to address critical security challenges such as phishing more effectively. The use of InsightAppSec for routine testing of application security has also been beneficial. Looking ahead, Modine plans to continue expanding their use of the agents and the alerting system in place and add more automation.

Benefit #1	Modine's security team no longer has to sift through approximately 16,000 possible alerts a day, as the Rapid7 team reduces this to about five validated incidents a day.
Benefit #2	The Rapid7 MDR identified a major incident in less than one hour, responded in less than two hours, and remediated it in less than 48 hours.
Benefit #3	Without Rapid7’s managed service for detection and response, Modine would need at least four or five more people to provide comparable coverage.
