What to verify before buying
Virtual patching can reduce exposure while you arrange an actual software update; it does not replace every runtime patch.
Ask about backups, access, affected versions, functional checks, reinfection coverage and response times. A lower headline price does not establish equivalent scope or results.
Can a public scan settle the choice?
No. Duke42’s free check identifies technologies exposed by a public homepage. It cannot inventory every installed plugin or confirm that a CVE is exploitable. An authenticated inventory and configuration review are needed for that.
