One of the big headaches in vulnerability management is closing the loop — it’s one thing to scan and find issues, but another to actually patch them quickly. I’m looking for platforms that integrate scanning with patch management, so we don’t have to juggle multiple disconnected tools.
From the G2 data I’ve been looking at, here are some of the platforms that stand out:
-
Wiz: Strong cloud-native scanning and integrates with workflows for remediation, though patching often relies on pairing it with existing ITSM/patch tools.
-
Orca Security: Agentless scanning with integrations into ticketing/patch workflows, good for cloud-heavy teams.
-
Tenable Nessus: A classic for scanning, and with Tenable Vulnerability Management it ties into patch workflows through integrations with SCCM and other patching tools.
-
Tenable Vulnerability Management: Broader enterprise solution, designed to connect vulnerability data to remediation and patching pipelines.
-
Sysdig Secure: Focused on containers and Kubernetes, integrates with CI/CD and runtime controls rather than traditional patch systems.
Other names I see often for scanning + patching integrations are Qualys (with Patch Management module), Ivanti, and ManageEngine, etc.
For teams here, do you prefer a single platform that handles both scanning and patching, or do you integrate best-of-breed scanners with dedicated patch systems?
