Four places attackers look. One place to see them.
Vikelus only reads. It never changes your settings, devices or mail. It shows F1's technicians exactly where to act, and checks that the fix worked.
Devices and vulnerabilities
Common business software on every managed device is matched against public lists of known weaknesses, then ranked by how likely each one is to be used against you.
NVD, CISA's known-exploited list, EPSS and Microsoft updates
Microsoft 365
Sign-in protection, admin accounts, risky app permissions and mail forwarding rules, checked daily. Sign-ins are watched for password guessing from abroad.
About 70 security checks · sign-ins every 10 minutes
Website and email
Checked from the outside, the way an attacker would look: certificates, email spoofing protection, exposed services, leaked logins and lookalike domains.
SSL, SPF, DKIM and DMARC, checked daily
Protection and patching
Is every device protected, switched on and up to date? Gaps go straight onto F1's list to fix, before they turn into a problem.
Endpoint protection health and patch status
The sign-in watch runs every 10 minutes. A correct password stopped by multi-factor sign-in (MFA) from another country, or a burst of failed guesses, is flagged with the place and network it came from, and F1's team is alerted.
The newest weaknesses attackers are actively using.
This is the public list of vulnerabilities that attackers are known to be exploiting, kept by CISA, the US cyber defence agency. EPSS is the chance a weakness will be exploited in the next 30 days. Vikelus ranks your fixes with exactly these two signals.
Vikelus finds it. F1 fixes it. Vikelus checks the fix.
Vikelus finds it
An out-of-date program, a weak setting or a suspicious sign-in, ranked by real-world risk.
An F1 technician fixes it
People act, not software. Vikelus never changes your systems itself.
The fix is verified
A vulnerability only counts as fixed once Vikelus sees the fixed version installed.
It shows in your report
What was fixed, what is still open and what comes next, in plain language.
One page you can read in five minutes.
On the first of every month, F1 prepares a short report for your business: what Vikelus found, what was fixed, and what comes next.
Six headline tiles. Sign-in protection, devices protected, critical vulnerabilities fixed, threats stopped, open issues and an overall risk level.
Device health. Which devices are healthy and fully patched, and which need attention.
What was fixed, and what's next. Every vulnerability patched that month, plus the plan for the next one.
Checked by a person. An F1 engineer reviews every report before it reaches you. Nothing is sent automatically.

What business owners ask us first.
What is Vikelus?
Vikelus is F1 IT Solutions' vulnerability management and security tool. It watches your devices, your Microsoft 365, and your website and email, finds weak spots and ranks them by real-world risk. F1's technicians fix what it finds, and every month you get a plain-language report.
Does Vikelus change anything on my systems?
No. Vikelus only reads. It never installs updates, isolates devices or changes settings, users or mail. F1's technicians do the fixing, and Vikelus checks afterwards that the fix worked. The one thing it switches on is Microsoft's own audit log feed for your Microsoft 365, so that sign-ins can be watched on accounts without Microsoft's premium licence.
How often does it check?
Sign-ins to your Microsoft 365 are checked every 10 minutes. Microsoft 365 settings, your website and your email are checked daily. The software on your devices is collected every few hours and matched against the public vulnerability lists, which are updated daily.
What happens when something serious is found?
Serious events, like a successful sign-in from another country or an inbox rule that forwards your mail outside the business, alert F1's team by email, usually within minutes. A technician looks at it and acts, and contacts you if anything is needed from your side.
