Pricing is per-user or per-endpoint, billed monthly, with no long-term contract beyond the first 90 days.

Most breaches use a vulnerability that's been public for months.

Verizon DBIR: 60% of breaches in 2024 exploited a known vulnerability that already had a patch available. Attackers don't need zero-days — they wait for you to forget to patch.

Patches sit untouched

Average SMB unpatched window: 277 days for third-party apps. Adobe, Java, Chrome, Zoom — these are the most-exploited and least-patched apps in your environment.

Windows Update isn't enough

Microsoft Update only handles Windows + Office. Your real attack surface is the 100+ third-party apps your team installed — none of which auto-update reliably.

No visibility into the backlog

Most SMBs can't answer 'how many critical vulns are open right now?' That visibility gap is the gap between you and a breach.

Scan. Prioritize. Patch. All in one platform.

Vicarius vRx finds vulnerabilities across your environment, ranks them by real-world exploit risk, and auto-deploys patches. SynergyIQ owns the exceptions and the rollback playbook.

Comprehensive vulnerability scanning One agent finds vulns in Windows, macOS, Linux, and 1,500+ third-party apps. No more juggling separate scanners.
Risk-prioritized remediation Not all CVEs matter equally. vRx ranks vulns by real-world exploitation (CISA KEV catalog + threat intel), so the right thing gets patched first.
Auto-patching with rollback Patches deploy automatically per your maintenance window. If something breaks, vRx rolls back. SynergyIQ owns the exception list.
Patchless protection For vulns that can't be patched (legacy apps, vendor delays), vRx applies runtime mitigation that blocks exploitation without touching the app.
Compliance reporting SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, and cyber-insurance audits get a clean 'days-to-patch' KPI by category. Beats the spreadsheet you're maintaining manually.
SynergyIQ owns the maintenance window We schedule patching to your business hours, monitor every rollout, and handle the rollback if a vendor's update breaks something. Zero downtime.

Things Houston businesses actually ask us

Does this replace WSUS or Intune?
It complements them. WSUS/Intune handle Microsoft patching well. vRx adds the 1,500+ third-party apps that those tools miss (Adobe, Java, Chrome, Zoom, Notepad++, 7-Zip, etc.) plus the prioritization layer.
Will auto-patching break things?
Patches deploy during your defined maintenance window, with auto-rollback if a deployment fails health checks. SynergyIQ also tests critical patches in a pilot ring before broad deployment for sensitive vendors.
What about servers and legacy apps?
vRx supports Windows Server, Linux, and macOS. For end-of-life or legacy apps that can't be patched (looking at you, Server 2012), vRx applies patchless runtime protection that blocks exploits without changing the app.
How fast does vRx deploy?
Agent rollout: typically 1-2 hours for a 50-endpoint environment. First full vulnerability scan completes within 24 hours. We deliver your first 'open critical vulns' report by end of week one.
Is this required for cyber insurance?
Vulnerability management is increasingly required by major carriers. vRx satisfies the patch-management questionnaire item that most SMBs get downgraded on during underwriting. We provide the carrier evidence.
