The Veris Community Database (VCDB)

VERIS and its accompanying dataset (VCDB) aim to provide not only a repository of widespread publicly collected incidents, but a common language for describing these incidents. The overall goal is to cooperatively learn from past experiences for better risk management, and to collect data for all publicly available data breaches. The repository contains individual JSON files for each incident in the dataset, including the original URLs used when coding the cases. The dataset collects information on publicly disclosed data breaches and drives the publication of the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) annually.
