Continuous Drift Monitoring

Keep your JVM inventory, patch posture and Oracle license exposure current as the estate changes, instead of commissioning a new assessment every year.

Assessments go stale

An estate assessment is accurate the day it's delivered. After that, teams deploy new services, vendors ship updates with new bundled runtimes, someone installs Oracle JDK on a build agent, and a new CVE lands against a version you thought was fine.

Continuous Drift Monitoring keeps the picture current. The inventory becomes a system of record instead of a PDF.

What it watches

  • New and undocumented JVMs across hosts, containers and artifact repositories
  • Patch-level drift: which runtimes fell behind after each quarterly critical patch update
  • New CVEs against the versions and dependencies you actually run
  • License exposure changes: a new Oracle JDK install is flagged before it shows up in an audit
  • Classification triggers, such as a new regulated data flow, a traffic spike or an incident, which force an application's risk tier to be re-scored

How it's delivered

Collection reuses the minimum-privilege methods from the original assessment. Findings go to a shared dashboard and to the channels your teams already use. Each quarter, aligned to the Java patch calendar, we review drift, exposure and upcoming end-of-life dates with you.

You can't patch what you can't find: building a real JVM inventory

Most enterprises can't say how many JVMs they run or where. Here's what a useful JVM inventory captures, how to collect it, and where it goes wrong.

Advisory for the Java you don't build yourself, including commercial products, appliances and vendor-bundled runtimes, so they get patched or protected instead of forgotten.
