Several vendors offer patch management tools that prioritize updates based on vulnerability scanner findings. The closest match if you want to keep your existing scanner is JetPatch. If you want an integrated vulnerability-scanning and patching platform, Qualys and Tenable are also strong options.
1. JetPatch
(Best for existing scanners)
Integrates with existing vulnerability scanners, including Rapid7/Nexpose, Tenable/Nessus, and Qualys. It imports identified vulnerabilities, helps prioritize remediation, and creates patching plans.

2. Qualys — Patch Management / VMDR
Best if your scanner is Qualys, or you're open to consolidating tools. Qualys maps detected vulnerabilities to relevant patches and prioritizes remediation using risk, exploitability, threat intelligence, and asset criticality.

3. Tenable — Tenable Patch Management
Combines vulnerability prioritization with automated patching, correlates vulnerabilities to appropriate patches, and supports remediation policies and service-level agreements.

One question: Which vulnerability scanner are you using today — Tenable/Nessus, Qualys, Rapid7, or something else? I can narrow this down to the patch management products that integrate with your existing scanner, rather than recommending a replacement for it.

Many modern security ecosystems bridge the gap between vulnerability scanning and patch execution. Depending on whether you want an all-in-one native platform (where the scanner and patch tool are built by the same vendor) or an integrated workflow (where your scanner feeds a separate patch management system), several top-tier vendors offer this capability.
These platforms run their own assessment/scanning engines and include dedicated patch management modules that automatically map, prioritize, and deploy fixes based on those exact scan findings.
Are there any patch management tools that integrate with vulnerability scanners to automatically rank and prioritize patching tasks?
We are looking for software to manage patches that uses our vulnerability scanner's output to determine the priority of remediation tasks.
If you already use a specific standalone vulnerability scanner (like Tenable Nessus, Qualys, or OpenVAS) and want to feed those results into a separate patch management tool or IT service management (ITSM) workflow for prioritization:
If you let me know which specific vulnerability scanner you are currently using, I can tell you whether it has a direct native patch module or which third-party patch tool integrates best with it.
