Patchstack

The fastest and smartest vulnerability mitigation for websites

Visit Patchstack

Patchstack is a vulnerability mitigation tool for WordPress sites and JavaScript applications. It addresses the window between a plugin, theme or npm package vulnerability being disclosed and the site owner applying an update, using virtual patching to block exploits without code changes. Its RapidMitigate system runs within the site itself, combining software composition analysis, threat intelligence and context-aware prioritization to deploy targeted mitigation rules.

Core capabilities include automatic vulnerability detection, contextual prioritization, a Threat Intelligence API, remote software management, CI readiness checks, WP-CLI support, scheduled threat activity reports, and a Community IP blocklist module. It also offers an advanced hardening module for WordPress-specific threats, unlimited custom protection rules, and PCI-DSS 4.0 compliance support for eCommerce.

Patchstack is aimed at individual site owners, professionals and agencies, MSPs and businesses with compliance needs, and web hosts managing infrastructure. Packaging includes a seat-based Developer edition with a set number of seats and expandable site licenses, a first month free offer, and custom-billed Enterprise and Web host editions with features such as an SLA, DPA, extended API endpoints and dedicated rollout support. A 30-day money back guarantee applies.
