Thanks for the pointer. Is this a lobbying org? https://www.fdd.org/analysis/policy_briefs/2025/03/21/delaye...

> While NIST has since reallocated $8.5 million to NVD for fiscal years 2024 and 2025, this funding remains a fraction of the $300 million to $400 million estimated to be needed annually to fully restore capacity, with an additional $120 million to $150 million required to prevent further system “deterioration.”

Did NVD receive 300MM annual funding pre-2024? That would be a 98% funding cut.

300 million would’ve been a quarter of the NIST budget. Doubt.

Yeah, bizarre site.

MITRE CVE/CWE budget is more transparent than NVD since it's a contract, listed on USAspending.gov.
