The Challenge

Development teams need real-time awareness of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) affecting their tech stack. Manually tracking security advisories across fragmented sources is impractical, error-prone, and leaves critical windows of exposure.

The Approach

Engineered a product vulnerability assessment platform with a Next.js/TypeScript frontend and Flask API backend. Built CVE database ingestion pipelines, product-to-vulnerability mapping logic, and automated email notification dispatching when critical vulnerabilities are detected in registered products.

The Outcome

Deployed a fully functional vulnerability scanner at riskradar.piyushpaul.com. Automated CVE tracking and alerting pipeline that keeps development teams informed in real-time, significantly reducing manual monitoring effort and improving incident response time.
