Milestone Systems joins CVE programme

February 2024 News & Events, Information Security


Thomas Jensen.

Milestone Systems has partnered with the Common Vulnerability and Exposures (CVE) Programme as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA). The aim of the programme is to find, describe, and catalogue known cybersecurity issues. Organisations worldwide working with the programme find and share these vulnerabilities. They publish CVE Records with clear details about the issues to help IT and cybersecurity experts talk about the same problem and work together to fix it.

Thomas Jensen, CEO of Milestone Systems, said: “Milestone Systems is committed to transparency in cybersecurity across our business. As responsible technology becomes a licence to operate, we believe that people have the right to feel safe knowing that they can trust video technology.

“As a CVE Programme partner, we will now publish mitigated vulnerabilities to the wider community, which will allow Milestone to coordinate and address potential issues even more effectively. This will further enhance our cybersecurity and continue to build trust in our XProtect open platform video management software.”

Cybersecurity vulnerabilities will continue to be reported via Milestone’s website. The registration will now be under CVE ID numbers, and vulnerabilities and mitigations will be accessible through Milestone’s profile on the CVE website, as well as milestonesys.com.

About the CVE Programme

The mission of the CVE Programme is to identify, define, and catalogue publicly disclosed cybersecurity vulnerabilities. There is one CVE Record for each vulnerability in the catalogue. The vulnerabilities are discovered, then assigned and published by organisations from around the world that have partnered with the CVE Programme. Partners publish CVE Records to communicate consistent descriptions of vulnerabilities. Information technology and cybersecurity professionals use CVE records to ensure they are discussing the same issue and to coordinate their efforts to prioritise and address the vulnerabilities.
