Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) with Nessus. By Paul Asadoorian on May 24th, 2010. You may know the folks over at MITRE for their work on the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures). Standards such as CVE help us track and document thousands of vulnerabilities released each year. Along the same lines, a new project from MITRE called CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) provides the public with a standard method to enumerate software: CPE is a structured naming scheme for information technology systems, platforms, and packages.
In March, 1832, the Franklin Railroad was chartered by the Pennsylvania Legislature, and on January 16, 1837 by the Legislature of Maryland. The road was built from Chambersburg to Greencastle, Pennsylvania in 1837, and to Hagerstown, Maryland in 1841.
One of the most controversial of the public lands disposals was the railroad land grants, a series of federal and state acts between 1850 and 1871. The ostensible purposes of the railroad land grants were to build the transcontinental railroad and telegraph systems, and to help settle the West. The railroad corporations, often federally-chartered public corporations, were in effect to be agents of federal and state public lands policies.
