<p id="rfc.section.1.p.1">Sharing threat information became a fundamental requirements in the Internet, security and intelligence community at large. Threat information can include indicators of compromise, malicious file indicators, financial fraud indicators or even detailed information about a threat actor. MISP <a href="#MISP-P" class="xref">[MISP-P]</a> started as an open source project in late 2011 and the MISP format started to be widely used as an exchange format within the community in the past years. The aim of this document is to describe the specification and the MISP core format. </p>
