The NVD is a major provider of vulnerability reference data that is used throughout the vulnerability management ecosystem. In recent years, keeping up with the flow of CVEs and providing enrichment data for each CVE has been a major challenge for the NVD. Adapting to the changing landscape of the vulnerability management ecosystem is a major challenge, not just for the NVD, but for all participants. This talk aims to provide some discussion on what some of those challenges are and potential paths for adaptation.
