The search for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson (H) produced through theVector Boson Fusion (VBF) mechanism and decaying to a pair of bottom quarks isreported. The used data have been collected with the CMS detector andcorrespond to an integrated luminosity of 19.8 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-protoncollisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV at the CERN LHC. Parked data have been exploitedas well. This search resulted in an observed (expected) significance in thesedata samples for a H $\rightarrow$ b$\bar{{b}}$ signal at a mass of 125 GeV of2.2 (0.8) standard deviations. The cited signal strength,$\mu=\sigma/\sigma_{\textrm{SM}}$, was measured to be 2.8$^{+1.6}_{-1.4}$. Thisresult has been combined with other CMS searches for the SM Higgs bosondecaying in a pair of bottom quarks exploiting other Higgs productionmechanisms. The obtained combined signal strength is 1.0 $\pm$ 0.4,corresponding to an observed signal significance of 2.6 standard deviations fora Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV.
