Subject: Re: [openc2-imple] OpenC2 vs OpenDxl Ontology
What is the OpenDXL Ontology?
February 24, 2020 â San Francisco, CA â The Open Cybersecurity Alliance (OCA) today announced the availability of OpenDXL Ontology, the first open source language for connecting cybersecurity tools through a common messaging framework.

I think the IC-SC should look more closely at the OpenDxl Ontology being proposed by McAfee in the OASIS Open Cybersecurity Alliance.

I personally am for the principles behind the OCA (ie vendor agnostic interoperability). I thought they were going to leverage existing standards like OpenC2. I am concerned that I think the ontology is not what I think of as a ontology but is instead a command and control language. For example their command âblacklistâ looks to me like the OpenC2 command âdenyâ. Maybe I am misunderstanding but I think people should look and we should have a FAQ about how they relate. If they are âcompetingâ, I recommend interested parties contribute their views to OCA, hopefully supporting not reinventing the wheel. If they are not competing then the FAQ should explain.
