The editors would like to propose an addition to the specification, suggested by Paul Patrick.
Many in the community have commented about the lack of an Incident SDO in STIX 2.1. This has caused them to define their own, as a custom object. With the inclusion of the STIX extension facility into the
specification, it has been suggested that the 2.1 spec includes a âstubâ for Incident. This âstubâ would act as a placeholder, from which the members of the community could base the extensions for their Incident content. The text added to the specification
to define the Incident SDO would be minimal â similar to the stub for the Course of Action.
Please respond if you feel this addition to the specification should not happen. If there is any objections, we can discuss them on the next weekâs call.
