Mitre is a not-for-profit corporation which hosts the [[Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures]] (CVE) Database. The CVE database provides a worldwide reporting mechanism for developers and the industry and is a source feed into the U.S. [[National Vulnerability Database]] (NVD).<ref>{{cite web|title=Mitre FAQ|url=http://cve.mitre.org/about/faqs.html#a2|publisher=Mitre|date=2015-12-10 |access-date=2016-01-17}}</ref> According to Mitre, Plone has the lowest number of reported lifetime and year to date vulnerabilities when compared to other popular Content Management Systems. This security record has led to widespread adoption of Plone by government and non-governmental organizations, including the FBI.<ref name="govfresh.com" />
