As of 2018, the BDU contained only roughly one-tenth of the number of entries of the corresponding U.S. National Vulnerability Database. According to ARPSyndicate, a cyber intelligence firm based in New Delhi, their vulnerability mining project VEDAS is currently tracking over 70,896 unique vulnerabilities listed in BDU.
