CVE, CIS, Cyber Kill Chain Mitre Att&ack, and NIST CSF tags require a valid Security Knowledge Feature Pack license See Licensing and Support
Managing CVE Tags
CVE Information will be downloaded from https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cves/2.0 as tags are added for events.
The CVE Tab contains a filter to search for tags used by events. It's possible to filter by CVS Score by using the Score Comparator and Threshold.
Additionally, CVEs can be filtered by Publish Date.
To manually add a CVE tag, use the Add
Button.
