Siemserva and Action1: cloud patching meets Microsoft 365 posture

Action1 is cloud-native patch management. Siemserva is the independent patch double-check and the Microsoft 365 posture layer.

Action1 is a cloud-native patch management and endpoint platform, known for fast deployment of OS and third-party patches. It deploys patches well. Siemserva complements it: an independent verification of patch coverage across Microsoft's APIs and your tools, plus deep Microsoft 365 configuration posture and compliance.

How Siemserva makes it better

Siemserva runs standalone for full Microsoft 365 posture across configurations, logs, and CVEs, or right alongside Action1.

What Action1 does wellWhere teams want more
Cloud-native OS and third-party patch management.A patch deployment tool reports its own actions, not independent verification.
Fast deployment and real-time visibility.Microsoft 365 / Entra ID / Intune / Purview posture is out of scope.
Endpoint automation and remote actions.No native Microsoft compliance mapping.
Accessible model for lean teams.Coverage gaps appear when multiple patch tools are in play.

Your data, and a model you can build on

Every finding, and the full graph behind it, is yours. Through the Senserva SDK and the Claude MCP you get complete access to the underlying Siemserva data, so you can query it, extend it, and build your own checks, reports, automation, and integrations on top. Nothing is locked away in a vendor cloud, and the data stays with you.

Siemserva does not just record pass or fail. It models your target environment, the identities, devices, applications, policies, and how they relate, as a queryable graph. That makes the data a foundation for new work: custom analysis, threat hunting, and automation, not a static checklist you read once and set aside.

A closer look

Cloud-native patch management

Action1 is a cloud-based patch management and remote endpoint management platform aimed at keeping operating systems and third-party applications current without on-prem infrastructure. It uses a lightweight agent reporting to a cloud console, so it works equally well for remote and roaming devices.

OS and third-party coverage

Action1 patches Windows and a catalog of common third-party applications, with automated policies, rings, and reboot controls. Its appeal is simplicity and fast time-to-value for teams that want patching handled without standing up servers.

Visibility and reporting

The platform inventories installed software and missing updates and reports patch compliance, giving IT a clear view of which endpoints are behind. That reporting reflects Action1's own deployments and the agents it manages.

Where independent verification helps

As with any single tool, an independent cross-check, confirming patches on the device through Microsoft's APIs and ranking remaining gaps by real CVE risk, adds assurance across whatever else is in the environment.

Frequently asked

Does Siemserva patch with Action1?

Action1 deploys patches; Siemserva independently verifies coverage and produces the unified, compliance-ready report, and covers Microsoft 365 posture Action1 does not.

Do I need to install agents or grant broad access?

No agents and no cloud service. Siemserva reads your tenant through Microsoft's APIs and runs on Windows or Mac. You can explore the whole product first on the free Advanced Microsoft 365 Security Simulator, with no access to your environment at all.

Can I try Siemserva before I buy?

Yes. The Advanced Microsoft 365 Security Simulator and the game let you explore a full scan, the findings, the AI, and the reports for free. Scanning your own tenant uses a license key, and 501(c)(3) nonprofits get the full version free.

Does Siemserva work for MSPs and multiple tenants?

Yes. It supports multi-tenant and MSP fleets, with bulk tenant security audits and unified, client-ready reporting across many customers.

How does Siemserva use AI, and does it cost extra?

Siemserva is built for AI from the ground up and also runs fully without it. Turn it on for AI-enhanced reports and to run the product from Claude, or the AI of your choice, via our market-leading MCP. You bring your own model, so there is no AI markup, and the rich data model keeps calls and cost low.
