ITL AI Webinar: The Development of an AI Agent Enrichment Workflow at the National Vulnerability Database

Join NIST on September 17, 2026 for an Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) AI Program hosted webinar on the development of an AI agent enrichment workflow at the National Vulnerability Database. 

The National Vulnerability Database (NVD), established and operated by NIST, provides the U.S. government repository of standards-based vulnerability management data. The NVD is a foundational resource for vulnerability management, software security, compliance automation, and cybersecurity risk analysis across the public and private sectors. It provides standardized vulnerability enrichment and associated metadata consumed by a broad ecosystem of security tools and operational workflows. It is a part of the broader vulnerability management ecosystem that encompasses processes, standards, and tools involved in one or more phases of the vulnerability lifecycle of identifying, validating, disclosing, disseminating, prioritizing, and remediating software and system vulnerabilities.

The increasing scale and complexity of discovered vulnerabilities poses a challenge for the NVD to provide timely information that is actionable to users of NVD data. The increasing use of AI tools to aid in the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities contributes even more to the job that is required to keep pace with the flow publicly disclosed vulnerabilities.

NIST has begun work on an AI agentic workflow to aid in the enrichment of vulnerability information provided by NVD. This webinar will discuss the approach taken, the architecture of the solution, the various issues discovered during implementation, and early results with the use of the tool at the NVD.
