My European friends here: do whatever you can to make EUVD a viable alternative. It's a vulnerability database led by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity enisa. Since their website is relatively new, you can help by providing feedback though this survey. Yes, the CVE funding has been continued for another year. But a sustainable approach to vulnerability management cannot be dependent on a single government-owned / funded entity any longer! I wish the board members all the best in transferring CVE to a new umbrella organization, but now is a great time to also consider global alternatives.

Be funny if someone started a gofundme.

We need a alterntive that doesn't rely on the U.S.A it can be from any country

So either the EU steps up and funds them until the administration tariffs the EU until they stop.

Or we rely on the big tech companies to step up and fund them and risk pissing off the administration.

Honestly the only way I see them coming back is either up root their lives and move to the EU with a funding guarantee, or the EU just sets up their own program.

Oh, there goes the majority of the cybersec vulnerability disclosure space

This is the platform most of the world uses to keep track of publicly known vulnerabilities

Terrifying. Unfortunately it’s difficult to explain to laypeople why the CVE system is so important. Our nation’s leaders certainly won’t get it. Hopefully the experts are able to get through to them when it’s time to renew again. And maybe we can reduce our government dependence a bit by then.

Oh my God, and then I think of all the hundreds of thousands of veterans who voted for Trump. You did a great job.

Yet another great decision by our benevolent leadership

😳 Is the program entirely funded by the US government?

What can EU and other governments/businesses do about this? Or what are they doing?

Why should something of this importance be entrusted to a single government anyways, shouldn't it be distributed/decentralized?
