CVE Numbering Authorities (CNA)

CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) are organizations authorized to assign CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) identifiers to cybersecurity vulnerabilities. These identifiers are unique codes that help professionals track and discuss specific security issues. CNAs assess and assign these CVE IDs for vulnerabilities in their products or related software, ensuring standardized and verified reporting. This process helps improve coordination and communication within the cybersecurity community, making it easier to identify, address, and mitigate security risks efficiently.
