CWE Compatibility

The CWE Compatibility Program provides for a product or service to be reviewed and registered as officially "CWE-Compatible," thereby assisting organizations in their selection and evaluation of tools and/or services for assessing their acquired software/hardware for known types of weaknesses and flaws, for learning about the various weaknesses and their possible impact, or to obtain training and education about these issues. Organizations with products and services still working towards compatibility are also listed.

CWE-Compatible Products and Services must meet the four (4) requirements below. Please review the complete set of requirements to fully understand CWE compatibility.

CWE Searchable users may search security elements using CWE identifiers
CWE Output security elements presented to users includes, or allows users to obtain, associated CWE identifiers
Mapping Accuracy security elements accurately link to the appropriate CWE identifiers
CWE Documentation capability's documentation describes CWE, CWE compatibility, and how CWE-related functionality in the capability is used

See the CWE Compatibility Requirements or email cwe@mitre.org for information on how to register your product(s) or services(s) as CWE-compatible.
