Quality

In professional vulnerability management there is no place for wrong or inaccurate data. This is the reason why quality and quality assurance is very important for us. We are awarded a place in the CNA Enrichment Recognition List which rewards CVE Numbering Authorities with a high level of quality.

Training and Guidelines

Our vulnerability moderators are highly trained and follow specific internal guidelines on how to handle new entries or updates for existing entries.

Examples

During our work it is not unusual that we find wrong or inaccurate data in other sources. For example:
