Vicarius, a vulnerability remediation company, and Atera, an IT management platform, have announced a strategic partnership to integrate vRx, Vicarius’s autonomous end-to-end vulnerability remediation platform, into the Atera App Center. This collaboration aims to provide managed service providers (MSPs) and corporate IT teams with enhanced security capabilities and streamlined operations.
The integration allows Atera customers to access and deploy vRx directly through the Atera platform. vRx is designed to transition security efforts from mere vulnerability detection to proactive resolution, offering capabilities such as native patching, custom scripting, automation, and proprietary Patchless Protection. This technology enables streamlined CVE risk elimination across over 2,000 applications and operating systems, while protecting more than 10,000 third-party applications and devices.
Tanya Alfonso, VP Channel Sales at Vicarius, commented on the development: “There’s been a massive and much-needed shift in the industry from simply detecting vulnerabilities to actually resolving them. Our partnership with Atera brings together two powerful platforms to help MSPs not only identify risks but fix them fast, with minimal manual effort. This integration will help Managed Service Providers (MSPs) scale their remediation offerings while also boosting business efficiency.”
vRx’s Patchless Protection creates a secure barrier around vulnerable applications, maintaining functionality while significantly reducing risk until a validated patch becomes available for deployment. MSPs can deploy vRx’s full-stack remediation suite with a few clicks through the Atera platform, accessing automated remediation workflows, scheduled deployments, and the ability to manage their account, add team members, and handle billing directly within Atera. The vRx dashboard provides comprehensive visibility and control over vulnerabilities, prioritized by business context.
Mayan Mandel, VP Marketplace at Atera, stated: “We’re excited to welcome Vicarius to the Atera App Center. This partnership enhances our platform with advanced vulnerability management—enabling MSPs to expand their security offerings and helping corporate IT teams add a critical layer of protection.”
Vicarius’s mission centers on revolutionizing vulnerability management by focusing on proactive problem resolution. The company develops advanced technologies to streamline and simplify the mitigation of CVE-related risks through real-time patching, robust scripting, and patchless protection.
