Vultron Protocol Reference

Prerequisites

The Reference section assumes that you have

• specific questions about or a desire for a detailed understanding of the Vultron Protocol
• familiarity with the Understanding Vultron section
• familiarity with the CVD process in general

If you are unfamiliar with the Vultron Protocol, we recommend that you start with Understanding Vultron. If you are familiar enough with the Vultron Protocol that you're interested in implementing it, see Implementing Vultron. And finally, if you're just trying to understand the CVD process, we recommend that you start with the CERT Guide to Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure.

The Vultron Protocol Reference includes the formal Vultron Protocol specification, and crosswalks the protocol with other related standards and protocols, including:

• A Formal Protocol specification for the Vultron Protocol
• An annotated listing of the Case States of the Vultron Protocol
• Documentation of Python code included in the Vultron Protocol prototype
• A set of OWL Ontologies for the Vultron Protocol
• A Crosswalk of the Vultron Protocol against ISO/IEC standards (including ISO/IEC 29147, 30111, and 5895)
• A Crosswalk of the Vultron Protocol against the Stakeholder-Specific Vulnerability Categorization (SSVC) methodology
• A Decision Log for the Vultron Protocol project
