Check out my latest CyberScoop piece.

The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) is now a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Program-Root, thus becoming a central point of contact within the CVE program for national/EU authorities, EU CSIRTs network members, and cooperative partners falling under ENISA’s mandate.
