About KEV
The CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog contains vulnerabilities that:
- Have been assigned CVE IDs
- Have been actively exploited in the wild
- Have clear remediation actions
Reference: CISA KEV Catalog
Why KEV Matters
- Prioritization: Not all CVEs are equally critical
- Active Exploitation: KEV focuses on vulnerabilities being actively used by attackers
- Compliance: US federal agencies required to patch KEVs within specified timeframes
- Risk Reduction: Addressing KEVs provides immediate security improvement
