I attended a meeting in Washington this past week and it's very clear that
people are confused over VEX. 

 

Today, I read an article that confirms this confusion over VEX so I wrote a
small piece that clarifies the distinction between CSAF VEX and a CSAF
"Security Advisory". People are confusing VEX with Security Advisories.

 

The description of VEX as a "Negative Security Advisory" comes directly from
the author of VEX, Thomas Schmidt, as shown in the video clip linked in the
article, (link below).

Please help people understand the distinction. I'm concerned this situation
will negatively impact SBOM adoption.

 

 

Thanks,
