PatchSentry

PatchSentry is a web app (with lightweight endpoint agents) that focuses on one painful gap: proving vulnerability remediation actually happened. Instead of being yet another scanner, it ingests findings from the tools teams already use (Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, GitHub Dependabot, Snyk) and turns them into a remediation evidence workflow. It automatically requests the minimum proof needed (package version, KB installed, container image digest, commit hash), validates it via agent checks or API calls, and produces auditor-ready evidence trails. It prioritizes what to fix using exploitability signals (KEV, EPSS) and business context, then nags the right owner in Slack/Jira until closure. The product is intentionally narrow: reduce “we think it’s patched” uncertainty, shorten time-to-close, and make audits less miserable. This is a combination traditional + AI app: AI helps map findings to owners, suggest fix steps, and summarize evidence, but core validation is deterministic.
