    NIST SP 800-216 - federal CVD recommendations finalized

    NIST SP 800-216 finalizes recommendations for federal vulnerability disclosure programs. While federal in scope, MedTech CVD programs are increasingly being benchmarked against it.

    What changed

    • Defines minimum CVD program elements: intake, triage SLAs, coordination, public advisory cadence.
    • Aligns with the FDA's postmarket expectations for a published CVD URL.

    Action for manufacturers

    Benchmark your CVD policy against SP 800-216; gaps (intake email, triage SLA, advisory template) commonly show up in postmarket update letters.
