About the platform
NEOSEC Intel
A German-language platform for vulnerability and threat intelligence, built by NEOSEC GmbH for mid-sized companies and KRITIS operators under NIS2.
What NEOSEC Intel does
We consolidate publicly available security data sources – NVD, CVE.org, CISA, BSI, GHSA, OSV, MSRC, abuse.ch, vendor PSIRTs – into one German-language situational picture. Instead of reading five sources side by side, security teams see at a glance what's new, what's critical, what affects their own stack and what is actively exploited (CISA KEV). We address operators under NIS2 and manufacturers under the Cyber Resilience Act (EU 2024/2847). For manufacturers this means from December 2027: Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure, SBOMs and security updates across the entire lifecycle.
Sources & licenses
Every source NEOSEC Intel uses, grouped by purpose – with origin, license and a note on how we use it. BSI content is never mirrored 1:1; commercial tech news appears strictly as an RSS teaser with a link to the original.

Enrichment
English-language advisories are translated into German with a curated glossary – including sector relevance (which industries are affected?) and NIS2 / ISO 27001 context. Translation and enrichment run, fully logged, through our own interface to language models; data of signed-in users never enters AI processing.
Prioritisation
Every vulnerability gets a priority on a scale from 0 to 325, combining CISA KEV status, ransomware use, EPSS probability, CVSS severity, recency and the prevalence of the affected products in Germany. That's how over 3.1 million entries collapse into two screens of what actually warrants attention this week. This is distinct from the XIEM® Effective CVSS on CVE pages: the highest available CVSS score from NVD and vendor data (0 to 10).
Operator
Operated by NEOSEC GmbH, Mönchengladbach. Managing Director: J. Benjamin Espagné.
