Use case for data markings

["Modlin, Julie K." <Julie.Modlin@jhuapl.edu>]

Regarding the recent question and discussion regarding data marking use cases, the ESSA Community (Federal Entities including the National Cyber Centers) has a need for a capability to indicate that certain markings used on STIX documents are themselves sensitive. To support this in the proposed construct, there is a need for the ability to apply data markings (object_marking_refs or granular_markings) to specific marking_definitions themselves. This is supported by making marking_definitions standard TLOs.
