What is the difference between Stix and Taxii?
STIX and TAXII are standards developed in an effort to improve the prevention and mitigation of cyber-attacks. STIX states the “what” of threat intelligence, while TAXII defines “how” that information is relayed. Unlike previous methods of sharing, STIX and TAXII are machine-readable and therefore easily automated.
How Stix Taxii and CyBox can help with standardizing threat information?
By using TAXII, STIX and CybOX, you make it easier and faster to share information you find with your users and peers. It allows an entire community to add to and extend the context of threat information and threat intelligence.
What is CyBox?
CyBox is the FERPA- and HIPAA-compliant file storage system at ISU. It allows you to store files in the cloud, sync to your computers, and collaborate with others. Files connected to your Canvas course will be updated automatically when changes are made in CyBox.

What format is Stix?
STIX provides expressive coverage of the full-spectrum of cyber threat informa- tion—observables, indicators, incidents, TTP, exploit targets, courses of action, threat actors and campaigns—to provide support for a broad set of cyber security defense use cases.
What is Stix used for?
STIX (Structured Threat Information eXpression) is a standardized XML programming language for conveying data about cybersecurity threats in a common language that can be easily understood by humans and security technologies. Designed for broad use, there are several core use cases for STIX.
What is Stix shifter?
STIX-Shifter is an open source Python library that enables software to connect to products that house data repositories. STIX-Shifter uses STIX Patterning to return results as STIX Observations. STIX-Shifter uses the STIX patterns to transform the output into data that mostly looks and behaves the same.
What is Stix format?
What is Cyber observable expression?
Cyber Observable Expression (CybOX) is a standardized language that enables a systematic exchange and sharing of any observable and notable event or property, related to the cyber realm.
Is Stix a JSON?
STIX 2 objects are represented in JSON.
What is the open cybersecurity alliance?
Open Cybersecurity Alliance (OCA) project, an OASIS open project, aims to connect the fragmented cybersecurity landscape and enable disparate security products to freely exchange information, out of the box, using mutually agreed upon technologies, standards, and procedures.
What is open IOC?
OpenIOC is an open framework, meant for sharing threat intelligence information in a machine-readable format. It was developed by the American cybersecurity firm MANDIANT in November 2011.
How does the Stix and TAXII communities work together?
The STIX and TAXII communities work closely together (and in fact consist of many of the same people) to ensure that they continue to provide a full stack for sharing threat intelligence. CybOX (Cyber Observable eXpression) is a language for describing events of stateful properties (“things”) that are observable in the cyber domain.
Can a cybox word be used in a Stix language?
An oversimplification of gluing this all together is that STIX is a language that can use CybOX words, and the communication is possible with TAXII. STIX characterizes what is being told, while TAXII defines how the STIX language is shared.
Is there a plugfest for Stix TAXII 2?
OASIS Completes Second Successful Plugfest for STIX/TAXII 2 Interoperability: Cisco, Fujitsu, LookingGlass, NC4, New Context, U.S. DHS, and Others Participate in Event to Validate Threat Intelligence Sharing Standards. 29 June 2018
Who are the people who use Stix security?
STIX is for anyone involved in defending networks or systems against cyber threats, including cyber defenders, cyber threat analysts, malware analysts, security tool vendors, security researchers, threat sharing communities, and more.
