Join the CWE™ Cross-Domain Special Interest Group (XD-SIG)!

The CWE Program is launching a new "CWE Cross-Domain Special Interest Group (XD-SIG)." The XD-SIG is intended to be an open, collaborative forum that brings together contributors from across industry, government, academia, and the cybersecurity community. We invite you to join this collaborative effort as a core member of the XD-SIG community.

Mission

By unifying previous domain-specific efforts, the XD-SIG aims to:

• Improve the usability and accessibility of the CWE corpus
• Promote accurate and precise use of CWE in vulnerability root cause mapping
• Promote broader industry adoption of CWE
• Support continuous improvement of CWE content and processes
• Enhance how weaknesses are defined, presented, and mapped across software, hardware, AI, and other domains

Membership & Community Engagement

Core Member Meetings

As active contributors to the XD-SIG, core members are expected to:

• Participate in monthly 1-hour core meetings
• Contribute to planning and coordination activities
• Engage in discussion between meetings
• Help advance group tasks and workshop topics

Community Workshops

Quarterly workshops will be held for the broader CWE community to share updates, demonstrate progress, and gather feedback on XD-SIG initiatives. Workshops are expected to average approximately two hours, depending on discussion topics.
