The closest thing we do is monitor patches on machines.
For debian machines, we use a modified check-apt perl script (originally from http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/nagios, modified to do things like run apt-get update first)
For windows machines, we snmp-poll the server and compare the listed KB patches against an internal list
For solaris machines we're looking at check_solaris_pca
