Vulnerability & Patch Management

Proactively identify, prioritize, and remediate security vulnerabilities across your entire IT landscape to reduce risk and maintain a strong security posture.

A closed ticket isn’t proof - we re-scan to confirm the vulnerability is actually gone

Re-scan required before closure a ticket closes only once the fix is confirmed
Why this matters

A closed ticket isn’t the same as a closed vulnerability.

A patch can fail silently, apply to the wrong version, or get rolled back by a later change - and a ticketing system will still show "resolved" unless someone actually re-scans to confirm it.

Patches that silently fail

A patch deployment can report success in the tool while the underlying vulnerability remains exploitable.

Tickets closed on faith

A ticket marked resolved by the person who applied the fix isn’t the same as independent verification.

Regressions after the fact

A later system rebuild, rollback, or reimage can quietly reintroduce a vulnerability that was already fixed.

Scan blind spots

An asset added outside your normal provisioning process may never get included in the scan scope.

What sets this apart

We re-scan to confirm it, not just close the ticket.

We don’t just deploy patches and close tickets - we go back and re-scan to confirm each vulnerability is actually closed, not just marked resolved, and hand you a specific action for anything that comes back open.

  • Patch verification - confirmed by an independent re-scan, not by the closed ticket alone.
  • Reopened findings - tracked when a fixed vulnerability resurfaces after a rebuild or rollback.
  • Scan scope - reviewed for assets that may have drifted outside normal coverage.
  • Prioritization - re-checked against current exploitability, not just the original severity score.
sample validation findings
High
A critical vulnerability marked “patched” 3 weeks ago is still exploitable on re-scan.
Reapply the patch, confirm the correct version was targeted, and re-scan before closing.
High
4 servers reverted to a vulnerable state after a snapshot rollback last month.
Re-patch the affected servers and add a post-rollback verification step to the process.
Medium
5 assets provisioned outside the standard process are missing from the scan scope.
Add the assets to the scan scope and confirm asset inventory reconciliation runs regularly.
Low
A medium-severity finding from 2 months ago has no documented remediation owner.
Assign an owner and a target date, then confirm closure with a re-scan.
Implementation scope

What this covers

Vulnerability Identification

Continuous scanning and analysis to identify security weaknesses across your infrastructure, applications, and cloud environments.

Prioritization & Reporting

Intelligent prioritization of vulnerabilities based on severity, exploitability, and potential business impact, complemented by clear reporting.

Patch Deployment

Streamlined and automated deployment of security patches and configuration updates to eliminate known vulnerabilities swiftly and efficiently.

Remediation & Verification

Comprehensive support for vulnerability remediation, including mitigation strategies, hardening, and verification to ensure effective closure.

Works with what you have

Scoped to your environment and risk tolerance.

Scan frequency is typically continuous or weekly for critical assets, with a full sweep on a regular cadence.

Frequently asked questions

How often do you scan?
Scan frequency is scoped to your environment and risk tolerance - typically continuous or weekly for critical assets, with a full sweep on a regular cadence.
Will patching cause outages?
We stage and test patches before broad deployment, and schedule production changes around your maintenance windows.
Can this become an ongoing managed service?
Yes - ongoing scan, triage, and remediation tracking with SLA targets is available through our Managed Security Operations service.

The vulnerabilities you know about are the ones you can fix.
