Every security team runs vulnerability scanners. Every scanner produces thousands of findings. 95% are not actually exploitable in your environment. Scanners check version match. Others check if the package is in use. Neither checks whether the specific exploitation conditions are met. Defendermate closes that gap. # FILTER: Verify whether the specific exploitation conditions are met on each resource. Feature state, configuration, security context, kernel, parameters. Agentless, read-only, full audit trail. # PRIORITIZE: Model your infrastructure as a graph. Trace attack paths with typed consequences at each hop. Compute internet exposure and blast radius. Three DM Score variants so every stakeholder sees the view they need. # EXPLORE: Every team queries vulnerabilities, attack paths, and cloud posture in natural language. Evidence-backed answers from verified data. Not generative guessing. Scanner-agnostic. Works with what you already run. Built for the post-AI era. Founded by a former CISO (UiPath, Spotnana, 2K Games) who spent years doing this work manually. https://www.defendermate.com
