What is CVE in healthcare
Cardiovascular Event (CVE) Risk Study – Health Research Authority.
WHO publishes CVEs
the MITRE corporation
Founded in 1999, the CVE program is maintained by the MITRE corporation and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).
What makes a CVE
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) is a database of publicly disclosed information security issues. A CVE number uniquely identifies one vulnerability from the list.
Who creates a CVE for vulnerability
The Mitre Corporation
CVEs are assigned by a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA). While some vendors acted as a CNA before, the name and designation was not created until February 1, 2005. there are three primary types of CVE number assignments: The Mitre Corporation functions as Editor and Primary CNA.
How is a CVE created
The process of creating a CVE Record begins with the discovery of a potential cybersecurity vulnerability. The information is then assigned a CVE ID by a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA), a Description and References are added by the CNA, and then the CVE Record is posted on the CVE website by the CVE Program Secretariat.
Who assigns the CVE number for an vulnerability
CVE identifiers are assigned by a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA). There are about 100 CNAs, representing major IT vendors—such as Red Hat, IBM, Cisco, Oracle, and Microsoft—as well as security companies and research organizations. MITRE can also issue CVEs directly.
Who controls CVE
The Mitre Corporation
The Mitre Corporation functions as Editor and Primary CNA. Various CNAs assign CVE numbers for their own products (e.g. Microsoft, Oracle, HP, Red Hat, etc.) A third-party coordinator such as CERT Coordination Center may assign CVE numbers for products not covered by other CNAs.
Who can publish a CVE
The publication can be done by the vendor if the response is present within a timeframe you have chosen and if not, you can do a publication on your own.
How does a CVE get created
There is one CVE Record for each vulnerability on the CVE List. Vulnerabilities are first discovered, then reported to the CVE Program. The reporter requests a CVE ID, which is then reserved for the reported vulnerability.
