Our take

Cybersecurity is always getting more complex, with developers having to juggle all sorts of considerations to make sure their creations are not vulnerable to attack. Patchstack is a company that simplifies an important part of this picture, by enabling web developers to secure web apps from third-party component vulnerabilities.

Patchstack works by detecting and prioritising vulnerabilities and automating the response to the most potent threats. A stand-out feature is the speed at which it learns about new threats. According to the company, it can protect its users up to 48 hours before its competition, because it is the exclusive report for hundreds of ethical hackers.

Patchstack's popularity is a testament to its value, with the platform being the official security point of contact for 300+ plugins. It is also well-funded, with the latest round going towards product development and the building out of its sales and marketing team.
