FEATURE STORY:

CVE/Making Security Measurable Booth at "RSA 2011," February 14-18

MITRE is scheduled to host a Making Security Measurable booth at "RSA 2011"
at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California, USA, on February 14-18,
2011. Attendees will learn how information security data standards such as
CVE, OVAL, CWE, CAPEC, MAEC, CCE, CEE, etc., facilitate both effective
security process coordination and the use of automation to assess, manage,
and improve the security posture of enterprise security information
infrastructures.

Members of the CVE Team will be in attendance. Please stop by Booth 2617 and
say hello!

HOT TOPIC:

1 Product from Neusoft Corporation Now Registered as Officially
"CVE-Compatible"

One additional information security product has achieved the final stage of
MITRE's formal CVE Compatibility Process and is now officially
"CVE-Compatible." The product is now eligible to use the CVE-Compatible
Product/Service logo, and a completed and reviewed "CVE Compatibility
Requirements Evaluation" questionnaire is posted for the product as part of
the organization's listing on the CVE-Compatible Products and Services page
on the CVE Web site. A total of 114 products to-date have been recognized as
officially compatible.

The following products are now registered as officially "CVE-Compatible":

* Neusoft Corporation - NISG-IPS

Use of the official CVE-Compatible logo will allow system administrators and
other security professionals to look for the logo when adopting
vulnerability management products and services for their enterprises and the
compatibility process questionnaire will help end-users compare how
different products and services satisfy the CVE compatibility requirements,
and therefore which specific implementations are best for their networks and
systems.

For additional information about CVE compatibility and to review all
products and services listed, visit the CVE Compatibility Process and
CVE-Compatible Products and Services.
