Video technology provider Milestone Systems has partnered with the Common Vulnerability and Exposures (CVE) Program as a CVE Numbering Authority, according to a joint announcement. The aim of the program is “to find, describe, and catalogue known cybersecurity issues,” the announcement says.
Organisations worldwide, working with the program, find and share these vulnerabilities. They publish CVE Records with details about the issues to help IT and cybersecurity experts talk about the same problem and work together to fix it, according to the announcement.
“Milestone Systems is committed to transparency in cybersecurity across our business,” says Thomas Jensen, CEO of Milestone Systems, in the announcement. “As Responsible Technology becomes a license to operate, we believe that people have the right to feel safe knowing that they can trust video technology.
“As a CVE Program 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,” he says.
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.
