The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program is the global standard for identifying and naming software vulnerabilities. Established in 1999, CVE assigns unique IDs to known cybersecurity flaws through a network of trusted organizations known as CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs). CVE data serves as the backbone for global cyber defense collaboration. Sustained investment, transparency, and shared responsibility are essential to ensuring the continuity of this critical program and preventing fragmentation of the global vulnerability landscape.
