Yeah, well fine.
But you should call that "IT Asset" (or ask ISO/IEC, and NIST* or DHS* to change their definition...)

https://niccs.us-cert.gov/glossary#letter_a

(NB: I guess you would call an SQL Injection a Vulnerability... where in fact, it is a Weakness until you get an Exposure - period, or use the Medias' definition of Hacker instead of RFC1392)
I can't fix the world.

You obviously don't have full understanding of Risk Management*, and I don't want to stay focused on the low (Operational/Tactical) level of the pyramid* for trying to build a cathedral

I won't claim to know where the ISO definition originated, or who was backing that definition at the time. All I know is the following...

- I have worked in the cyber security space for quite a while now and I have never heard of any client, colleague, or vendor intermingle the term "asset" with threat actors or system users.

- I do not know of any widely used tool or piece of software in cyber security* that intermingles the term "asset" with actors or users. "Assets", "asset compliance", "asset reporting", "asset risk", and the like *always* refer to infrastructure, software, and systems which should be protected, they never refer to users or actors. I am quite positive that if a piece of software used the term "Asset" to encompass users or actors and intermingle them, no one would know what we were talking about.

- I can not think of any common attributes that would want to be shared between infrastructure assets and threat actors, which would want us to derive from an "asset" base. This is where examples would help. I would appreciate if the backers of this proposal send a concrete example of the model - of an Asset base from which Threat Actor and Identity would share attributes with Infrastructure, and what that would look like (what attribues would be shared beyond the cti-common attributes). I can not envision the use case for this (what the common properties are that are relevant to CTI), so this is where examples of the model in action would help.

* I want to call out in advance that GRC is a different space with different consumers, and I do not believe STIX is not trying to solve or work in the GRC space.

I also mentioned on the call that I could use some examples of scenarios we’d want to represent via this approach, preferably in the form of existing CTI reports that we can convert to STIX. If you have anything, let me know.

Given that
1) OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) is a nonprofit, international consortium whose goal is to promote the adoption of product-independent standards"


2) ISO/IEC 27001 is (The) an international standard (and, as per my knowledge, Wikipedia is not)


I hope I have the right to point out Asset definition from an international standard.


With that said,
(Without arguing against the fact that Active Directory would not be a directory/inventory...)
(Nor pointing to the CIS Top Critical Controls)
(Not even to AI spec, CNSS Glossary or any RFC)
I do understand what I would call IT Asset.


Anyway, I should probably wait for the summer release for a review and feedbacks

Given that this forum and schema is specifically defined for communicating cyber threat information I think we should stick to well understood terms/definitions in the cyber/IT world.

I agree with Jason – that an asset is typically used to refer to a network connected system that is administered as part of an asset inventory system.


Asset’s typically are id-d with asset tags and those asset tags are tracked by the inventory system. They are also used by IT to know who they belong to, what their location is (if fixed) ….etc.


To my knowledge no company or organization currently tags their employees in an asset inventory system ☺

That said, I still think we should have a generic name for network connected systems rather than an asset vs malicious infrastructure.

I don't see this as a valid comparison. The properties we are looking to capture on Network Connection have next to zero intersection with the properties below. Also a network flow has two "message bodies" at the same time. FInally, the senders and recipients of "messages" are actors, where as the senders and recipients of network connections are physical devices.

I doubt one would want to combine the Asset object and the Threat Actor object into one common base, which is what you would have to do if you wanted to use the Message object to communicate a network connection.

Hey guys,
Based on some of our past work in similar areas, suggest the following information be captured:

- body
- timestamp
- timestamp description (message sent, received, created, viewed, etc.)
- viewed (whether or not the user saw the message)
- thread_id (unique identifier that defines what conversation thread the
message comes from)
- sender, recipients, and participants (sometimes you can't determine who the
sender was but you know which people were involved in the conversation)
- attachments
- thumbnails (which we treat as an attachment of the attachment.)
- file path

the filename found in the filepath)

My point is, none of this is arguments for or against a dedicated forum object. All of these things can be applied to email, SMS, and any other message type. I can craft a highly targeted SMS campaign just as easily as a highly targeted email campaign.

I do not see why email or forum are unique enough to have their own objects. They should be extensions of a common "message" object which contains the 75%+ of common attributes that all messages share.

Agreed, Malicious content is delivered by numerous channels/methods including Forums. Watering-hole and Drive-By attacks can be ***very*** targeted. Not sure what you point is?


Re: “- The incredible majority of malware delivered via email is not specifically targeted.”


Again not sure of your point. While some nuisance-ware & run-of-the-mill-malware is not specifically targeted, what does that have to do with VERY specifically targeted attacks against organizations and entire sectors?

My .02:

There are very distinct differences between an email message and a forum post. Starting with the header meta-data and intent. For example, as an attacker I send a malicious weaponized email to 1200 very specific targets. These individual emails, targets, along with all of the other email meta-data are completely different from a forum post. Of course a forum post may be created and/or further disemminated by an email message, but these all represent distinct objects, acts, and ponts in time.

There's a reason it is so easy to create a forum from a mailing list and vice-versa (like Nabble).... its really more a protocol difference than a difference in the message contents. Both are messages that come from an entity that are addressed to one or more other entities, which have headers and which may or may not have other attachments to the message. The fact that one is delivered via SMTP and the other via NNTP or the Web is a protocol nuance, not a property of the message, IMO.

Hi All,

For the 3rd time someone recently asked me if there was a way of encoding web forum posts within CybOX. My reply...well not really. That answer bothered me greatly, so with the help of AJ from EclecticIQ I put together a Forum Object.

The Forum Object is designed to record web forum and newsgroup posts, and is aimed primarily at helping people record what is being discussed on underground forums.

I really think it is needed for CybOX 3.0 MVP personally, and a couple of friends at very large organizations have also confirmed they would find this very useful. In fact one was surprised that it wasn't there already.
1.1 Forum Object



Type Name: forum-object
Status: Draft
MVP: Yes

The Forum Object represents a single Forum post. It is used to capture posts on newsgroups and web forums, primarily to enable the sharing of conversations held between threat actors on underground forums.
Properties



CybOX Object Properties
id, type
Property Name Type Description
type (inherited from cybox-object) string Indicates that this object is a CybOX Forum Object. The value of this field MUST be forum-object.
url (optional) string Specifies the url of the forum.
forum-name(required) string Specifies the name of the forum.
room-name(optional) string Specifies the room-name within the forum.
thread-title string Specifies the thread-title within the forum.
post-creator string Specifies the identity of the forum post creator.
post-details string Specifies the full details of the forum post.
