(OTCQB:TGCB), a cybersecurity company focused on threat intelligence, detection and correlation tools, today announced that is has been authorized as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (‘CVE^') Program. This prestigious designation now allows Tego Cyber Inc.
