Case Study: EMW Law achieves 93% reduction in false positives and real-time vulnerability visibility with Rapid7 InsightIDR and InsightVM

EMW Law Relies on Rapid7 Insight Platform to Meet Evolving Security Requirements

EMW Law is a UK-based law firm handling sensitive client and commercial data across multiple offices, and must meet stringent security standards from clients and the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Their on-premises detection and patching tools were generating excessive false positives, consuming hours of investigation, and their legacy patch management was too resource-intensive—while a shift to remote work made a cloud-based, always-accessible solution essential.

EMW deployed Rapid7 InsightIDR and InsightVM for cloud-native threat detection and vulnerability management, with simple agent rollout and access to Rapid7’s SOC and threat intel. The firm saw a 93% reduction in false positive alerts, improved endpoint visibility (including remote devices), faster investigations, and greater confidence in prioritizing and remediating risks, with plans to further integrate the platform into its technology stack.
