Lewis Caliburn2N has been officially recognised by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Program as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) – becoming the first manufacturer in its field to achieve this status.
This designation allows 2N to independently identify, name and publish verified security vulnerabilities in its products. The move speeds up how the company communicates potential risks and solutions, making its security practices more transparent and efficient.
“In recent years, we have been contacted by security researchers, agencies and customers reporting potential vulnerabilities in our products,” says Michal Kratochvíl, CEO of 2N. “By becoming a CNA, we can now respond faster and share verified information directly, building even greater trust with our partners.”
Previously, 2N published vulnerabilities through its parent company, Axis Communications, which also holds CNA status. Over the past year, the company issued seven verified reports, which are also published on dedicated Security Advisories portal. With its own authorisation, 2N can now manage the process from start to finish independently.
“We would like to thank our cybersecurity colleagues at Axis for their excellent cooperation and guidance throughout this process,” adds Michal. “We also appreciate MITRE’s support and recognition in granting 2N this important status.”
The CVE Program helps security professionals worldwide by maintaining a standardised public list of known software vulnerabilities, making it easier for organisations to coordinate responses and protect systems quickly.
