# Performing CVE Prioritization with KEV Catalog
## Overview
The CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, established through Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01, is a living list of CVEs that have been actively exploited in the wild and carry significant risk. As of early 2026, the catalog contains over 1,484 entries, growing 20% in 2025 alone with 245 new additions. This skill covers integrating the KEV catalog into vulnerability prioritization workflows alongside EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) and CVSS to create a risk-based approach that prioritizes vulnerabilities with confirmed exploitation activity over theoretical severity alone.
## When to Use
- When conducting security assessments that involve performing cve prioritization with kev catalog
- When following incident response procedures for related security events
- When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
- When validating security controls through hands-on testing
## Common Misconfigurations & Verification
