Subject: Re: [cti] CybOX Datatype Refactoring/Deprecation


The co-chairs and Rich discussed this issue and issues like it at length this morning.  The conclusion we came up with is that it appears that there is general consensus. However, to be sure, we are going to propose that when issues like this get this muddy, that we just open a simple vote to see if we have official consensus so we can just move on, and stop having circular discussions.

Alex, I therefor motion that we open a ballot on this issue.  Namely "Should STIX and CybOX support the ability to capture content in a defanged form and thus also include the ability to track that yes it was defanged and how it was defanged"


Thanks,

Bret

That seems a reasonable summary to me. I think there is enough consensus to at least park it until after the first release of CybOX 3.

It seems to me there is a rough concensus that we *should not* be supporting the de-fanging of data within STIX, with several people bringing up many strong arguments for why it is a bad idea to transmit on the wire and/or store data in a de-fanged fashion.

At a minimum, it seems to me that there is certainly a rough concensus that the supporting of de-fanging of data within STIX is not an MVP requirement.

Any chance we can proceed with this concensus, table this issue until after the release, where it can be raised again if it is later found to be a requirement? Anyone opposed to that?

To support this statement based on our implementation of exactly this;

At rest any information is stored as close to its original as possible. Defanging information is fanged back to ensure the ability to correlate, compare, cluster, etc. Depending on the use-case of the information, information is defanged on consumption by humans or when presenting on systems (e.g. a browser app for example) that could potentially generate action outside of the users control. E.g. Our UI ensures that things are defanged.

E.g. When exported:


E.g when you need to be able to compare mentally


e.g when you risk clicking it:
