The most difficult things are ahead, but the lessons of the past have already become the foundation.
In 2024, the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program celebrated its 25th anniversary. Since its founding in 1999, it has evolved from an ordinary research project to a global standard for identifying vulnerabilities. Today, more than 400 organizations from 40 countries participate in the program, and its mission remains unchanged — to identify, identify, and catalog vulnerabilities in cybersecurity.
The CVE program has experienced significant expansion. If in 2016 the number of partners with the right to assign CVE identifiers (CNAs) was only 24, then in 2024 there are already more than 400 of them. This has reduced latency and improved the quality of vulnerability publications, ensuring a more accurate response to modern threats.
Cooperation with the open community has become an important area of development. The program seeks to overcome past challenges, including slow response and the accumulation of unfinished tasks. The involvement of organizations such as Apache and the Python Software Foundation has strengthened communication with developers and helped to establish more transparent vulnerability management.
The introduction of new technologies, including automation, made it possible to speed up data processing. In 2018, CVE introduced the JSON 4.0 format for structured information storage, and in 2022 it was replaced by a more versatile version, CVE Record Format. This made it easier to work with vulnerabilities and speed up publications.
The program also adapts to the challenges associated with the development of artificial intelligence. New vulnerabilities arising from AI require a unique approach to identifying and addressing them. The CVE actively analyzes how changes in AI affect security and develops appropriate measures.
An example of CVE's success was the integration with the NIS 2 directive in Europe. This underlines the importance of the program at the level of international law and strengthens its impact on cybersecurity on a global scale. Engaging with governments and the private sector helps create new standards and promote transparency in vulnerability management.
CVE continues to expand its partner base to include organizations from new industries, from healthcare to telecommunications. The program intends to strengthen cooperation with cloud service providers, which is especially important against the backdrop of the growing popularity of SaaS solutions.
Celebrating 25 years of operation, CVE doesn't stop there. New challenges and opportunities lie ahead, which will allow the program to further strengthen its position in the vulnerability management ecosystem and continue to work for the benefit of the global cybersecurity community.
