Security-Database integrates OSVDB

Security-Database provides a continuous IT vulnerability XML feed based on open security standards for classification, scoring, enumeration and exploitation. It also provides a well maintained repository for latest security and auditing tools and utilities.

Now with each CVE comes its appropriate OSVDB entry.

About OSVDB

JPEG - 6 kb

OSVDB is an independent and open source database created by and for the security community. The goal of the project is to provide accurate, detailed, current and unbiased technical information on security vulnerabilities. The project will promote greater, more open collaboration between companies and individuals, eliminate redundant works, and reduce expenses inherent with the development and maintenance of in-house vulnerability databases.

Thanks to our team for this intense setup late at sunday night.
