In their own words

OWASP DefectDojo

OWASP DefectDojo gathers security scanner findings, deduplicates them, helps teams prioritize risk, and supports remediation. It natively integrates with more than 500 security tools across SAST, DAST, software composition analysis, cloud, and container categories. Community Edition accepts integrations through file import or API push and includes bidirectional Jira support; Pro adds more scheduled-pull connectors and ticketing options. Pro also enriches findings with EPSS and CISA KEV threat intelligence, supports automated triage rules, and offers governance features such as single sign-on, granular access controls, audit trails, and SLA enforcement. Sensei can ship fixes as pull requests. The product can be self-hosted or air-gapped, with data export through a documented REST API. Community Edition is free forever, with support through OWASP Slack and GitHub. Pay As You Go costs $100 a month plus $0.15 per finding processed; Sensei AI is billed per use. Pro Reachability is labeled beta, with five verdicts and KEV overriding the ceiling.

Vicarius vRx

Vicarius vRx combines vulnerability management with patch management, patchless protection, and scripting to remediate security findings. It prioritizes vulnerabilities using exploitability and environment context, and discovers endpoints, servers, network devices, IoT, and containers through agent-based or agentless methods. The platform advertises automated patch deployment across more than 20,000 third-party applications and operating systems. When a patch is unavailable, vShield offers in-memory protection for vulnerable applications, including legacy and end-of-life systems. vScript runs custom, community, and AI-generated PowerShell, Bash, or Batch scripts across Windows, macOS, and Linux. vRx can ingest findings from connected scanners and EDR platforms, route suggested actions for approval, and revalidate fixes after execution. It maps findings and remediation to frameworks including HIPAA, PCI DSS, Cyber Essentials, and more than 100 CIS Benchmarks. Basic is listed at $4 a month and Essential at $5 a month, billed per asset; each covers 100 workstations and servers. Both list a 14-day free trial. Custom pricing is scope-based and not listed.
