Beyond Patching: built for real Remediation

Unlike some vendors that deliver traditional patching and alerting, Vicarius drives real-world security action, automating asset discovery, context and risk-aware prioritization, automated remediation (including patchless protection), all within a unified, no-delay platform.

Vicarius key differentiators

Patchless Protection when needed most

Vicarius deploys in-memory mitigation around vulnerable applications, even when patches aren’t available, immediately reducing exposure risk.

Unified scan to fix in one tool

Vicarius delivers discovery, context and risk-based prioritization, several remediation options, all in a single user-friendly platform, streamlining end-to-end vulnerability management.

Risk-smart Prioritization, not just severity

Vicarius enhances prioritization by blending environmeent and business context, exploit intelligence, and threat relevance, ensuring focus on what really matters.

Always-on exposure monitoring

Vicarius maintains continuous visibility and remediation across changing environments, unlike static, periodic scans.

Deep visibility into legacy & custom apps

Vicarius identifies vulnerabilities in legacy, third-party, and niche applications often missed by standard tools, ensuring no blind spots.

Automated fixes that slash manual load

Vicarius can cut remediation efforts by up to 80%, thanks to automation, including patching, scripting, and virtual mitigation, freeing teams to work on strategy.

Watch how Vicarius identifies, prioritizes, and remediates vulnerabilities in real time, leveraging automation, scripts, and virtual patching. One platform to streamline remediation and take full control of your exposure.

How Vicarius compares to NInjaOne

Capabilities

Remediation built-in

Automated, in-platform remediation with scheduling, scripting, and guided patching

Offers agent-driven patch deployment workflows, but lacks integrated remediation, needs external tools to close the loop

Virtual Patching

Enables virtual patching for zero-days and unsupported software

Not supported

Cross-platform Support

Full patching for Windows, Linux, macOS, and over 10,000 third-party applications

Supports Windows, macOS, Linux, and ~120 third-party apps, coverage exists but is narrower

Agent-based & agentless modes

Offers both agent-based and agentless scanning for flexible deployment across asset types

Fully agent-based, cloud-native; no agentless scanning option reported

Real-time risk validation

Validates exploitability in live environments using telemetry, not simulated exploits

Identifies missing patches and CVEs (via ad-hoc scans) but does not validate real exploitability in real-time

Multi-tenancy for MSSPs

MSSP-friendly architecture with tenant isolation, delegated roles, and centralized control

Designed for MSPs, but reviews note challenges with organizational management complexity, multi-tenant usability is moderate

Workflow Automation

Unified platform for detection, prioritization, and remediation, minimizing tool sprawl

Automates patching with CVE/CVSS scoring, however, lacks unified detection-to-remediation workflow, separate tools or scripts still needed

Ease of deployment

Modern, cloud-native UI with fast onboarding and centralized console

Praised for intuitive UI and quick deployment with excellent support, however, scripting and policy setup may be non-trivial

Coverage depth

Covers vulnerabilities across system, app, network, and even patchless or legacy systems

Provides patch-centric coverage, but lacks deep exposure analytics and fails to address misconfigurations and legacy systems

Customer satisfaction

G2: 4.9 / Gartner: 4.8 praised for ease of use, performance, and support

G2: 4.7 / Gartner: 4.9 complaints around limited vulnerability scanning, reporting, and macOS support persist

Complete Vulnerability Remediation Platform

"What stood out was that it wasn’t just a scanner or a patch manager. It was an entire remediation platform. You discover vulnerabilities, prioritize based on real risk, and remediate automatically."

Eric Dowsland

Chief Customer Officer

My favorite feature is Patchless Protection

"With Vicarius' vRx, I've never seen a patch that failed or had to be rolled back. We're saving quite a bit of time. Our clients using vRx haven't had any issues, and they've easily established patching for all their endpoints."

Jeremy Herman

Security Engineer

Great patching capabilities, helpful dashboard, and excellent support

"vRx has saved us an incredible amount of time. We can just rely on the automated system and the schedules we've set. It's a huge time saver. It's saved us hundreds of hours."

Michael Cortez

Sr. Director of IT

EL AL secures global Patch Compliance

“Within two weeks we decided on Vicarius. Patch scheduling is now a one-day task instead of a full-time job.”

Tal Shachar

Deputy Director, Infrastructure, EL AL Airlines

Unified vulnerability discovery, prioritization, and remediation

"Vicarius streamlines vulnerability management between IT & Security by directly linking identified vulnerabilities to required patches, enhancing efficiency. The automation process has saved at least 30 percent of our manual tasks."
