CVE Database
CVE Database
The CVE Database server is a dedicated server specifically designed for hosting and efficiently querying the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database. This server hosting solution is geared towards security researchers, vulnerability management teams, and organizations requiring rapid access to comprehensive vulnerability information within a robust data center environment. It provides a fast, reliable, and scalable platform for analyzing and responding to security threats.

Setup & Management Best Practices
We recommend using a Linux distribution such as Ubuntu Server or CentOS Stream for optimal performance and security. Configure RAID1 for data redundancy. Implement regular backups using tools like rsync or Bacula. Use a monitoring solution like Prometheus and Grafana to track system performance. Regularly apply kernel updates and security patches. Consider using a filesystem like ZFS for advanced data integrity features.
