Bottom line: CISA's new plan prioritizes CVE management by leveraging AI and automation to reduce the number of CVEs by 25% within the next two years.
What's happening: The CVE program, which is overseen by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), has seen a significant surge in the number of vulnerabilities and exposures reported, with over 90,000 new CVEs added in 2022 alone. This has led to concerns about the program's ability to keep pace with the rapidly evolving threat landscape. The CVE program has been criticized for its manual processes, which can lead to delays in identifying and addressing vulnerabilities. Microsoft, in partnership with CISA, has been working to improve the CVE program through the development of a new CVE management tool.
What to do: To address the growing need for efficient CVE management, CISA is calling on security leaders to prioritize the implementation of AI-powered CVE management tools, such as the one being developed by Microsoft, to improve the program's efficiency and effectiveness.
