Extend your patch management with what attackers are actually exploiting

Siemserva by Senserva reads your true patch and CVE state across Intune, Windows Autopatch, and Defender for Endpoint, then ranks every missing KB by what attackers are actually exploiting. Built by Mark Shavlik, whose Shavlik tools defined Windows patching for a generation of admins.

Use AI to review your patch information

Connect Claude through the MCP integration and ask your own scan plain-English questions: which machines are missing this update, which devices are exposed to this CVE, what should we deploy first. Answers come from your scan database, never from model memory, and the AI reads and ranks; deploying stays in your tools. See the real tools and a full simulated session on the dedicated page.

AI patch management, in detail

Patching that proves your compliance

A missing patch is not just a vulnerability, it is a control gap an auditor will ask about. Because patching lives in the same Senserva model as identity, configuration, and logs, every gap is scored next to the risk around it, mapped to the frameworks you report against, and ready for AI-enhanced reports and remediation you review and apply. Senserva makes sure your Microsoft products are running to the compliance rules, then turns the result into easy, shareable reports across the whole estate.

Use Senserva alongside the security and management tools you already run. It is recommendation-first: it tells you what is missing and what is actively exploited, then hands Intune, Autopatch, or your RMM a defensible fix-this-first order. Senserva does not deploy patches: it reads and ranks, and hands Intune, Autopatch, or your RMM a defensible fix-this-first order. The AI can propose; deploying stays in your tools.

Where third-party patch vendors fit

Publishers like PatchMyPC, Scappman, and Robopack feed application updates into Intune; endpoint managers like Automox, NinjaOne, Ivanti, ManageEngine, and Tanium act on devices directly; Defender verifies the result either way, and Senserva reads it all. The full picture of how every layer fits together is in the Microsoft patching guide.

Patch Tuesday, reported instead of endured

Every second Tuesday, Microsoft ships a wave of updates and every IT team answers the same three questions: what came out, what matters to us, and where do we stand. Senserva answers all three as a report. The public Patch Tuesday page decodes the release the day it lands: every CVE, the zero-days named, exploited fixes flagged. A Senserva scan then turns that release into your numbers: which of this month's updates are missing on your devices, ranked by exploitation, with the deploy-first list at the top.

That is the Wednesday-morning artifact: a dated Patch Status Report scoped to the new release, ready for the change board, the boss, or the auditor. Rerun it after your rings deploy and the same report becomes the proof the wave landed.

Everything in the video, live and free to explore

The data in the walkthrough is public. Its home is the Microsoft Patch Tracker: every Patch Tuesday and out-of-band update (KB), the CVEs each one fixes, and a per-KB and per-CVE page for all of them, ranked by what attackers actually exploit and refreshed daily from MSRC, CISA KEV, FIRST EPSS, and the NVD. No sign-in, and the same data is available as JSON and RSS feeds.

What Senserva actually checks

Intune update policy
Feature, quality, and driver update profiles and update rings: paused rings, zero deferrals, missing deadlines, and driver auto-approval flagged as a supply-chain risk.
Windows Autopatch health
Deployments, audiences, reboot settings, and the security-update catalog, read directly from the deployment service. Groups registered but never enrolled get caught.
Per-device patch posture
Which devices are missing an exploited (KEV), Critical, or High update, by name, from Defender for Endpoint. An OS-build-lag fallback covers tenants without Defender licensing.
Threat enrichment
Every CVE joined with CISA KEV and its ransomware flags, FIRST.org EPSS exploit probability, MSRC advisories, and the NVD. Exploited always outranks merely severe.
Third-party applications
Win32 apps published to Intune by PatchMyPC, Scappman, Robopack, or any vendor, read vendor-neutrally. Defender recommendations flag third-party software that falls behind.
Reports you can question
A dedicated Patch Status Report with a KEV alert section and the ranked missing-update table, plus plain-English questions through Claude and MCP.

Triage order is deterministic and defensible: actively exploited first, then severity, then how long the update has been waiting. The same order in the dashboard, the report, and every AI answer.

Verification does not care who deployed the patch

The Defender for Endpoint sensor runs on the device itself, built into Windows, and inventories what is actually installed independently of any management channel. Whether a patch arrived through Intune, Windows Autopatch, Automox, NinjaOne, or a hand install, Defender observes the resulting on-disk state and reports installed or still missing, with each machine's CVE exposure joined to the KB that fixes it. That is what makes a Senserva patch report defensible: it is built on what is, not on what was scheduled.

The caveat matters too: a device never onboarded to Defender is invisible to it. Senserva flags devices outside Defender coverage, and for tenants without Defender licensing an OS-build-lag fallback still catches machines running behind the current release.

Windows Autopatch, audited end to end

If you run Windows Autopatch or Windows Update for Business, Senserva reads the deployment service itself on every scan, read-only: your updatable assets, every deployment with its audience and state, and the security-update catalog. Then it asks the question Autopatch cannot answer about itself: is anything falling through?

Deployment health
  • Groups registered with the service but never enrolled: Senserva compares each group's Entra membership against what the deployment service actually manages, group by group
  • No deployments at all, and deployments that are paused, faulted, or cancelled, with the service's own state reasons surfaced
  • Deployments whose audience nets to zero after exclusions, so they look active but patch nothing
  • Forced-reboot delays longer than five days flagged, with two days or less recommended
  • A security-update catalog probe, so a reachable-but-empty catalog does not pass silently
The CVE coverage gap
  • Senserva builds the set of KBs your deployments actually cover, then diffs it against twelve months of Microsoft CVEs joined with CISA KEV
  • An actively exploited CVE whose fixing KB is absent from every deployment becomes a Critical finding; the rest rank by severity, then by how long they have waited
  • Every finding names the CVE, the risk tier, the reasoning, and the exact KB to deploy, and exploited ones carry the CISA BOD 22-01 fourteen-day guidance

Beyond Intune and Defender

Patch state should not stop at the desktop estate. Senserva's patch intelligence extends to Azure virtual machines through Azure Update Manager: the latest patch assessment for each VM, critical and security update counts, pending reboots, and every missing patch with its KB and CVE identifiers, flowing into the same exploit-ranked model as everything else. Azure Arc-enabled servers are next.

Third-party applications published to Intune as Win32 packages, by PatchMyPC, Scappman, Robopack, or any other vendor, are read the same vendor-neutral way. Defender vulnerability recommendations already reach past Windows KBs to third-party software on your devices, and a much broader effort is underway to bring in patch information from the wider tooling ecosystem. For how all these layers fit together, with diagrams, read the Microsoft patching guide.
