Environmental Sustainability Policy

At Rapid7, our purpose is simple: secure the foundations of our technologically-dependent society. 在它的核心, cybersecurity health is directly tied to our ability to successfully manage our massive 和 increasingly-complex technology ecosystem. We believe that Cybersecurity works best when individuals, companies 和 government work together to achieve results. So too, is our perspective on sustainability.  Our environmental strategy is intended as an overview of the efforts we are undertaking as a business 和 as a global participant in the fight against climate change.

Governance 和 Corporate Citizenship:


  • Our Sustainability Committee meets regularly to discuss how we continue to improve our approach 和 ensure that we are exceeding all applicable environmental laws 和 regulations. 
  • We Identify 和 measure the most material environmental impacts of our operations. 
  • We establish targets to reduce our environmental impact 和 strive for continuous improvement. Even though we are a technology company with no physical manufacturing, we work to minimize our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We calculate our GHG emissions on a regular basis to review where we can make more of an impact.
