Brian #2: CVE Foundation formed to take over CVE program from MITRE

• Back story: CVE, global source of cybersecurity info, was hours from being cut by DHS
  
  
  
  • The 25-year-old CVE program, an essential part of global cybersecurity, is cited in nearly any discussion or response to a computer security issue.
  
  
  • CVE was at real risk of closure after its contract was set to expire on April 16.
  
  
  • The nonprofit MITRE runs CVE on a contract with the DHS.
  
  
  • A letter last Tuesday sent Tuesday by Yosry Barsoum, vice president of MITRE, gave notice of the potential halt to operations.
  
  
  • Another possible victim of the current administration.
  
  


• CVE Foundation Launched to Secure the Future of the CVE Program
  
  
  
  • CVE Board members have spent the past year developing a strategy to transition CVE to a dedicated, non-profit foundation. The new CVE Foundation will focus solely on continuing the mission of delivering high-quality vulnerability identification and maintaining the integrity and availability of CVE data for defenders worldwide.
  
  
  • Over the coming days, the Foundation will release more information about its structure, transition planning, and opportunities for involvement from the broader community.
