Metasploit Creator Renames His Startup and IT Discovery Tool Rumble to runZero


HD Moores company has rebranded its IT, IoT, and OT asset discovery tool as the platform rapidly evolves.



Renowned security industry pioneer HD Moore — creator of the wildly popular Metasploit hacking toolkit — has renamed his startup Rumble to runZero in a nod to how its platform has evolved since
its inception in 2019
.
Moore initially built the IT asset discovery tool Rumble Network Discovery after years of witnessing firsthand as a penetration tester that organizations cant properly find, track, and manage IT devices on their networks, nor the security posture of those devices. He pioneered major research scanning for and discovering
all types of exposed devices
on the public Internet, ultimately developing the Rumble IT asset discovery tool that finds and fingerprints devices and their status on the network.
According to a blog post on the rebranding, the new name better reflects how the platform has evolved. Moore, the chairman and founding CTO of the startup, originally named the platform (and company) Rumble to mean discover, but now that the platform can do more than find assets, he decided to rename it.
Rumble was the perfect name for us at the time, but weve outgrown it. Each new integration weve added has extended Rumbles capabilities beyond discovery, by enriching asset data and uncovering coverage gaps in other IT and security tools, the company
said in a blog post
.
Moores company
received $5 million in venture capital
in 2021.
