Vulnerability & Patch Management

Detection was
never the problem.

Every scanner finds the gap. Few programmes close it before it's exploited. Govern the full remediation lifecycle — triage to verified fix — in one register, with an immutable record of every decision.

Chief Information Security Officer

Vulnerability Manager

"Vulnerability & Patch Management is the continuous triage, prioritisation, remediation and verification of technical weaknesses across your estate — governed as a lifecycle, not a scan."

The Gap

A vulnerability is only risk between the moment it's known and the moment it's fixed. Most programmes measure the first date and ignore the second.

What It Does

From ingestion to verified closure in four steps

Each step maintains a governed, auditable record. AI accelerates prioritisation — your security team owns every decision.

1

Ingest, don't re-scan

Pulls findings from your existing scanners and the Asset Register, normalised and de-duplicated into a single register. Not another scanner.

2

Prioritise by real exposure

CVSS, EPSS and CISA KEV weighted against asset criticality and reachability — so the queue reflects what can actually hurt you, not raw severity.

3

Govern the remediation

Every finding carries a decision — patch, mitigate or accept — that is role-approved, SLA-tracked and evidence-backed. Nothing closes on a status change alone.

4

Verify and record

Closure requires proof. Every triage, decision and approval is written to an immutable record — supersession is the only way forward.

Why It's Different

Scanners tell you what's wrong. They don't govern the fix.

SustainGRC sits above your existing scanners and owns what they leave open — the decision, the approval, the SLA and the proof that a weakness was closed. The artefact a board and a regulator ask for isn't a dashboard. It's a record.

Scanner-agnostic

Ingests findings from the tools you already own. No rip-and-replace.

Immutable by design

DRAFT → IN REVIEW → APPROVED → LOCKED. Supersession is the only way forward.

Evidence, not status

Nothing closes without proof. Audit evidence is a by-product of the work.

The Agent

An agent that triages the firehose — and stops there.

The Remediation Agent clusters duplicate findings, ranks them by exploitability and asset criticality, and proposes a plan with a drafted change request. It never patches on its own.

AI

Propose

Agent clusters, prioritises and drafts the remediation plan and change request.

HUMAN

Confirm

The accountable role approves, amends or rejects. Separation of duties enforced.

SYSTEM

Record

Both the proposal and the decision are written to an immutable, locked record.

HOW IT CONNECTS

Reads assets from the Asset Register, ingests findings from your scanners, and pushes unresolved exposure to Cyber Controls & Assurance and the Governance Twin.

Frequently Asked
Questions

What is Vulnerability & Patch Management?

It is the continuous triage, prioritisation, remediation and verification of technical weaknesses across your estate — governed as a lifecycle in a single register, rather than tracked as scattered scanner exports and email chases.

Is this a vulnerability scanner?

No. It sits above the scanners you already run. It ingests their findings and owns the part they leave open — the decision, the approval, the SLA and the evidence that a weakness was genuinely closed.

How does it prioritise findings?

Exploitability signals (CVSS, EPSS, CISA KEV) are weighted against asset criticality and network reachability. A high-severity finding on an isolated, low-value asset ranks below a lower-severity one that is exposed and business-critical.

Does the AI patch things automatically?

Never. The Remediation Agent proposes a prioritised plan and drafts the change request. Your team confirms; the system records both the proposal and the decision. AI proposes, humans confirm.

Which frameworks does it support?

ISO/IEC 27001 A.8.8, NIST SP 800-40, CIS Control 7 and NCA ECC-2:2024, with the remediation record mapped to the relevant control so audit evidence is a by-product of the work, not a separate task.
