What Happens When CVE Goes Dark?
In this thought leadership piece, Adapt Forward addresses the urgent need to modernize our national vulnerability intelligence infrastructure. The near-shutdown of the CVE program exposed a systemic fragility in the foundation of Zero Trust, AI-driven defense platforms, and CTEM pipelines. While CVE has served as a critical baseline for decades, it’s no longer sufficient in a world where adversaries move at machine speed. This article breaks down why CVE can’t be sunset overnight—but must evolve into a risk-aware, threat-informed, AI-compatible system. We outline the future: predictive scoring, contextual enrichment, and mission-driven collaboration across public and private sectors.
