IACD and OpenC2

[<duncan@sfractal.com>]

Here is a recent announcement of some work in Integrated Adaptive Cyber Defense (IACD) - http://www.newswise.com/articles/johns-hopkins-apl-and-fs-isac-operationalize-the-integrated-adaptive-cyber-defense-framework-to-improve-cybersecurity-in-critical-sectors.

I happen to be a fan of IACD, and I think much of the OASIS security work fits well withing the IACD framework. IACD has come up in discussions in the OpenC2 TC and some members expressed it being gov and not applicable or known within the commercial world. Hopefully the FS-ISAC endorsement will change that perception.

I hope the OpenC2 TC members who have influence in the IACD and FS-ISAC communities will stress the use of OpenC2. I know the early IACD efforts used the OpenC2 forum draft. I would like to avoid, if possible, IACD choosing proprietary alternatives to OpenC2 because we do not yet have enough agreement in OASIS.
