Brian Greenberg :verified:<p>⚠️ The EU 🇪🇺 to launch its own vulnerability database because the US is dropping the ball 🇺🇸 😢 — and the timing couldn’t be more telling 🛡️</p><p>In response to growing digital sovereignty concerns, NIS2 compliance, and calls for vendor accountability, the EU is building a public vulnerability catalog. The goal?<br>📂 Track and disclose security bugs across government, industry, and open source<br>🔍 Complement—not compete with—the CVE Program<br>📊 Increase trust, transparency, and resilience within the bloc</p><p>But let’s be honest:<br>🤝 Multiple public vuln databases means we must align identifiers, disclosure standards, and data feeds—or risk fragmentation<br>💡 Transparency is great, but what about verification, consistency, and maintenance?<br>📉 And if vendors or agencies self-report, how do we ensure accuracy or prevent omission?</p><p>Done right, this could increase pressure on lagging suppliers and elevate accountability. But if we don’t connect the dots globally, we may just multiply confusion.</p><p>What do you think: smart evolution or coordination nightmare?</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CyberSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CyberSecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/VulnerabilityManagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VulnerabilityManagement</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CVE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CVE</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NIS2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NIS2</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SoftwareSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareSecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Governance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Governance</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>security</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>privacy</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cloud</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infosec</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.theregister.com/2025/05/13/eu_security_bug_database/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theregister.com/2025/05/13/eu_</span><span class="invisible">security_bug_database/</span></a></p>
