Zusammenfassung:	A method includes, by a computer associated with a security reporter, updating a component vulnerability entry blockchain to represent a state of a component vulnerability entry of a software component vulnerability database. The method includes, by the computer, providing the updated component vulnerability entry blockchain to a management authority so that the management authority updates a master blockchain for the software component vulnerability database. The updated master blockchain includes a plurality of component vulnerability entry blockchains, which represent corresponding states of component vulnerability entries of the software component vulnerability database, including the updated component vulnerability entry.
