The fastest vulnerability mitigation for open-source platforms
application security
trusted security partner for
Vulnerabilities in open-source are publicly known and easily targeted in large-surface attacks. Patchstack mitigates threats in 3 easy steps:
Analysis SCA
Forget scans! By performing Software Composition Analysis (SCA), Patchstack has real-time visibility into what components the website is made of, enabling precise and proactive security.
Prioritization KEV
No more alert fatigue! By continuously monitoring 11,000 mitigation rules across the entire Patchstack network, we maintain real-time visibility into Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEVs), allowing us to accurately identify and prioritize the most critical vulnerabilities.
Mitigation
As the largest processor (CNA) of open-source vulnerability intelligence, we are the first to detect and mitigate new vulnerabilities. Patchstack bypasses SDLC and delivers conflict-free protection with no code changes or false positives.

Attackers automatically target all websites to build large bot nets to perform more complex attacks against lucrative targets. Even a basic website gives attackers one more node for future attacks. We believe better web security is a community effort.
Since Patchstack is focused on prevention in the first place, it does not scan your files like a malware scanner and won't help you in finding existing malware on your website. We recommend reaching out to your hosting provider or a professional.
Malware is most commonly injected by exploiting security vulnerabilities. Patchstack detects those vulnerabilities and automatically applies highly targeted mitigation rules that provide highly targeted, lightweight and effective way to hold off attacks to prevent any malware to get inside.
Malware scanners on the other hand scan for already injected malware which means the website has already been compromised and infected which also requires a thorough clean-up. While having regular malware scans is important to cover your back, it’s always better to prevent malware infections in the first place.
Regular firewalls aren't effective against vulnerability exploits, because such attacks rely on logic mistakes in your plugins and themes. Patchstack’s real-time protection fills in gaps that other tools miss, so you get specialized protection at the most commonly compromised level.
Reduce the high costs of downtime and hack cleanups. Stay proactive and protect your sites with Patchstack!
Patchstack runs several tasks on each page load but based on tests from us and from our customers we have seen that Patchstack does not affect your website's performance in any significant or noticeable way. In fact, a test done by one of our users indicated that Patchstack is up to 10x lighter than competing security services.
The Patchstack plugin can help, but patching is up to you. The plugin will inform you if your website(s) are running any known insecure components and allow you to be sure your sites are running secure versions before your test or auditing date.
