Bottom line: Rapid7's vulnerability management platform is not immune to market fluctuations.
What's happening: Rapid7's layoffs were reportedly triggered by a $40 million loss in revenue, while a vulnerability in the PCTel PRC-800 refrigeration system was exploited by an unknown attacker to gain unauthorized access to a Boeing 737 aircraft.
What to do: Security leaders should monitor PCTel's system for potential vulnerabilities and review Rapid7's platform to identify areas for improvement.
