Rapid7 tCell now supports Microsoft Agents on 32-Bit

We’re excited to share that over the past few weeks, we’ve released support for 32-bit applications for our .NET, .NET Core, and IIS agents.


“Why would you do that?” you may ask. To answer, we thought it may be helpful to explain our approach and the factors that went into deciding to do this work.


Background


Since the founding of tCell, our next-gen cloud WAF and RASP tool, we’ve always taken an approach that runs ahead of the expected currents. As people were discussing an application security approach that focuses on “shifting left,” we were talking about the equal importance of “shifting right” in the software development lifecycle to build a more complete appsec program. While many solutions were using external agents, we saw “in-app” instrumentation as advantageous—especially as services move to the cloud and containers. When the worlds of WAF and RASP were often talked about as separate technologies, we saw the opportunity to bring the worlds together in an easy-to-use solution. While some organizations were focusing heavily on the most popular programming languages and environments, we were seeking ways to ensure that tCell can be as flexible and deployable as possible.


All these insights didn’t arise in a vacuum on our own, but rather by listening to people who are wrestling with security issues on the front lines, including those in development, operations, and security roles. As a result of this direct feedback from folks on the ground, we strive to make tCell agents as ubiquitous as possible, enabling companies to use tCell everywhere, and as early as possible.
