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.
