CVE / CISA KEV Vulnerability Monitor with Zapier + Apify (NexGenData)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

A Zapier workflow that uses Apify. NexGenData has no official Zapier app — you run a public-data Apify actor inside Zapier through Apify’s official integration, scheduled, with your own Apify account.

The problem: new vulnerabilities drop faster than teams can triage

Hundreds of CVEs publish weekly, but only a few matter to your stack — the ones affecting your vendors, especially anything on CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list or with a high EPSS score. Watching feeds by hand is noisy and slow. A scheduled Zap filters to what’s relevant and alerts your team in Slack or an issue tracker the moment it lands.

Who this is for

Security, IT, and platform/dev teams who want vendor- and product-specific vulnerability alerts.

The Zapier workflow

  1. Schedule — Schedule by Zapier (a few times a day).
  2. Run Actor — Apify “Run Actor” → CVE Vulnerability Monitor (NVD + CISA KEV + EPSS), with your vendors/products in the input.
  3. Fetch dataset items — pull CVE ID, CVSS, CISA KEV flag, EPSS, summary.
  4. Filter / dedupe — keep KEV = true OR CVSS ≥ 9; drop CVEs already seen.
  5. Send to destination — Slack alert, Gmail, Google Sheets, or a webhook into an issue tracker (Webhooks is a paid Zapier app).

Illustrative sample.

Run it on a schedule

Scheduled runs give your team a tuned vulnerability feed: only CVEs that hit your vendors and cross your severity/KEV threshold reach Slack — deduped, so no repeat noise.

FAQ

What sources does it use? The actor combines NVD (CVE data), CISA KEV (known-exploited list), and EPSS (exploit-probability scoring).

How do I cut the noise? Filter on KEV = true or a CVSS/EPSS threshold and dedupe by CVE ID so each alert fires once.

Is this an official Zapier app? No — it’s a Zapier workflow using Apify’s official Zapier integration with your own Apify account.
