The European Union has officially launched the European Vulnerability Database (EUVD)—a centralized cybersecurity platform developed by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) to strengthen regional threat intelligence and risk management.
Unveiled under the NIS2 Directive, the EUVD provides verified, real-time data on security vulnerabilities affecting ICT products and services. It mirrors the functionality of the well-known MITRE CVE database and is built in collaboration with both EU and international partners, including the MITRE CVE Program.
According to ENISA, the database delivers reliable and actionable insights, including mitigation strategies and exploitation status for known vulnerabilities. One key feature is the integration of open-source software lookup tools, which enhances vulnerability analysis and correlation.
The platform is structured around three interactive dashboards—highlighting critical vulnerabilities, actively exploited threats, and EU-coordinated vulnerabilities identified by national CSIRTs and the EU CSIRTs network.
Information is continuously sourced from open databases and enriched with vendor advisories, patching instructions, and CSIRT alerts. ENISA emphasized that the EUVD aims to improve situational awareness, reduce threat exposure, and offer a trusted and transparent view of Europe’s cybersecurity landscape.
