CISA’s Power Play: The CVE Tug-of-War and the Quest for Cybersecurity Supremacy
CISA nearly let the CVE program lapse but now wants to take the wheel with a new vision. Think of it like CVE’s own “quality era,” where CISA is the headliner. But with debates about privatization and funding hiccups, the road to 2025 might be bumpier than a cat on a Roomba.
Hot Take:
Looks like CISA’s vision for the CVE program involves a whole lot of “my way or the highway.” After nearly letting the program slip through its fingers, CISA is now holding onto it tighter than a cat clinging to a laser pointer. Spoiler alert: not everyone is thrilled with CISA’s cat-like reflexes.
Key Points:
- CISA released a vision document for the CVE program, aiming for a “quality era.”
- The CVE program almost faced shutdown as CISA nearly let MITRE’s contract expire.
- CVE Foundation advocates for a nonprofit, vendor-neutral governance model.
- CISA insists on maintaining government-led control over the CVE program.
- The future of the CVE program is fraught with conflict and uncertainty.
