Vulnerability databases are instrumental in tracking and understanding software security threats. Among these, the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), maintained by the US government, is a primary source for security professionals, including system administrators, developers, and researchers. While many researchers have explored these databases, industry-based analyses are limited. In this paper, we curated a dataset from the NVD focused on six key industries: Education, Health, Entertainment, Finance, Energy, and Business & Retail. We performed a comprehensive analysis to highlight industry trends and affinities with various insights. This paper presents a unique industry-categorized dataset from the NVD, laying the groundwork for specialized vulnerability classification in future research.

摘要

Vulnerability databases are instrumental in tracking and understanding software security threats. Among these, the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), maintained by the US government, is a primary source for security professionals, including system administrators, developers, and researchers. While many researchers have explored these databases, industry-based analyses are limited. In this paper, we curated a dataset from the NVD focused on six key industries: Education, Health, Entertainment, Finance, Energy, and Business & Retail. We performed a comprehensive analysis to highlight industry trends and affinities with various insights. This paper presents a unique industry-categorized dataset from the NVD, laying the groundwork for specialized vulnerability classification in future research.
