In this paper we introduce the concepts of $CD$-rings and $CD$-modules. Let $R$ be a ring and $M$ be an $R$-module. We call $R$ a $CD$-ring in case every cosingular $R$-module is discrete, and $M$ a $CD$-module if every $M$-cosingular $R$-module in $\sigma[M]$ is discrete. If $R$ is a ring such that the class of cosingular $R$-modules is closed under factor modules, then it is proved that $R$ is a $CD$-ring if and only if every cosingular $R$-module is semisimple. The relations of $CD$-rings are investigated with $V$-rings, $GV$-rings, $SC$-rings, and rings with all cosingular $R$-modules projective. If $R$ is a semilocal ring, then it is shown that $R$ is right $CD$ if and only if $R$ is left $SC$ with $Soc(_{R}R)$ essential in $_{R}R$. Also, being a $V$-ring and being a $CD$-ring coincide for local rings. Besides of these, we characterize $CD$-modules with finite hollow dimension.
