Acting as an envelop, it allows setting distribution and sharing rules for itself and its children.] [Encode incidents/events/reports/…] [\taggable \distributable \synchronisable] [Encapsulations for contextually linked information.] {\linkdest{event}Event} { $\blacktriangleright$ \events can contain other elements such as \attributes, \objects and \eventreports.\\ $\blacktriangleright$ The distribution level and any context added on an \event (such as \taxonomies) are propagated to its underlying data. } % ATTRIBUTE \cheatbox[\faicon{cube}] [Individual data point. Can be an indicator or supporting data.] [Domain, IP, link, sha1, attachment, …] [\taggable \distributable \synchronisable] [Basic building block to share information.] {\linkdest{attribute}Attribute} { $\blacktriangleright$ \attributes cannot be duplicated inside the same \event and can have \sightings.\\ $\blacktriangleright$ The difference between an indicator or supporting data is usualy indicated by the state of the attribute's \texttt{to\_ids} flag. } % Object \cheatbox[\faicon{cubes}] [Groups \attributes that are intrinsically linked together.] [File, person, credit-card, x509, device, …] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Advanced building block providing \attribute compositions via templates.] {\linkdest{object}MISP Object} { $\blacktriangleright$ \objects have their attribute compositions described in their respective template. They are instanciated with \attributes and can \reference other \attributes or \objects.\\ $\blacktriangleright$ MISP is not required to know the template to save and display the object. However, \textit{edits} will not be possible as the template to validate against is unknown. } \columnbreak % Object Reference \cheatbox[$\nearrow$] [Allows to create relationships between entities, thus creating a graph where they are the edges and entities are the nodes.] [Represent behaviours, similarities, affiliation, …] [\synchronisable] [Relationships between individual building blocks.] {\linkdest{reference}Object Reference} { $\blacktriangleright$ \references can have a textual relationship which can come from MISP or be set freely. } % Sightings \cheatbox[\faicon{eye}] [Allows to add temporality to the data.] [Record activity or occurence, perform IoC expiration, …] [\synchronisable] [Means to convey that an \attribute has been seen.] {\linkdest{sighting}Sightings} { $\blacktriangleright$ \sightings are the best way to express that something has been seen. They can also be used to mark \textit{false positives}. } % Event report \cheatbox[\faicon{file-text}] [Supporting data point to describe events or processes.] [Encode reports, provide more information about the \event, …] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Advanced building block containing formated text.] {\linkdest{eventreport}Event Report} { $\blacktriangleright$ \eventreports are markdown-aware and include a special syntax to reference data points or context. } % Proposals \cheatbox[\faicon{comment}] [Allow the correction or the creation of \attributes for \events your organisation does not own.] [Disable the IDS flag, Correct errors] [\synchronisable] [Clone of an \attribute containing information about modification to be done.] {\linkdest{proposal}Proposals} { $\blacktriangleright$ As \proposals are sync., if the creator organisation is connected to the MISP instance from where the \proposal has been created, it will be able to either \textit{accept} or \textit{discard} it. } \columnbreak % Taxonomies \cheatbox[$\mathcal{T}$] [Enable efficent classification globally understood, easing consumption and automation.] [Provide classification such as: TLP, Confidence, Source, Workflows, Event type, …] [] [Machine and human-readable labels standardised on a common set of vocabularies.] {\linkdest{taxonomy}Taxonomies} { $\blacktriangleright$ Even though MISP allows the creation of free-text tags, it's always preferable to use those coming from \taxonomies, if they exists. } % Galaxies \cheatbox[\faicon{rebel}] [Bundle \clusters by their type to avoid confusion and to ease searches.] [Bundle types: Exploit-Kit, Preventive Measures, ATT\&CK, Tools, Threat-actors, …] [] [Act as a container to group together context described in \clusters by their type.] {\linkdest{galaxy}Galaxies} {} % Galaxy Clusters \cheatbox[\faicon{rebel}] [Enable description of complex high-level information for classification.] % [\texttt{threat-actor="APT 29"}, \texttt{country="germany"}, \texttt{mitre-attack-pattern="Disk Wipe - T1561"}] [Extensively describe elements such as: threat actors, countries, technique used, …] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Kownledge base items used as tags with additional complex meta-data aimed for human consumption.] {\linkdest{cluster}Galaxies Clusters} { $\blacktriangleright$ \clusters can be seen as an enhanced \taxonomy as they can have meta-data and relationships with other \clusters.\\ $\blacktriangleright$ Any \clusters can contain the following: \begin{itemize}[noitemsep,topsep=2pt,parsep=0pt,partopsep=0pt] \item \texttt{Cluster Elements}: Key-Value pair forming the meta-data. \begin{itemize}[noitemsep,topsep=2pt,parsep=0pt,partopsep=0pt] \item[Example:] \texttt{Country:LU}, \texttt{Synonym:APT28}, \texttt{Currency:Dollar}, \texttt{refs:https://*}, … \end{itemize} \item \texttt{Cluster Relations} (\taggable\synchronisable\distributable): Enable the creation of relationships between one or more \clusters. \begin{itemize}[noitemsep,topsep=2pt,parsep=0pt,partopsep=0pt] \item[Example:] Threat actor \texttt{X} \texttt{is similar} to threat actor \texttt{Y} with \texttt{high-likelyhood.} \end{itemize} \end{itemize} } \end{multicols*} \newpage \begin{multicols*}{3} % Analyst Note \cheatbox[\faicon{sticky-note}] [Share and add an analysis to any MISP data] [Describe information about specific details, annotate elements] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Text element that can be attached to many element] {\linkdest{note}Analyst Notes} { $\blacktriangleright$ Any user can attach \notes to data they don't own. For example: \events, \attributes, \clusters, $\cdots$\\ $\blacktriangleright$ The note is actually attached to the target's UUID } % Analyst Opinion \cheatbox[\faicon{gavel}] [Share and add an opinion to any MISP data] [Provide feedback to third-parties, Coordinate and Collaborate] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Text element with a numerical opinion that can be attached to many element] {\linkdest{opinion}Analyst Opinions} { $\blacktriangleright$ Basically the same as a \note\\ $\blacktriangleright$ The numerical value of the \opinion is $\in [0, 100]$. where $50$ is the neutral point. Any values $<50$ are considered negatives, values $>50$ are considered positives. } % Analyst Relationship \cheatbox[\faicon{arrow-up}] [Create a relationship between elements] [Manually create correlation link, add similarities] [\distributable \synchronisable] [Link between two entities using a verb] {\linkdest{opinion}Analyst Relationships} { $\blacktriangleright$ Basically the same as a \note but includes the target element\\ $\blacktriangleright$ Example could be an \event $\rightarrow$ \event relationship where one is \textit{Suspected to be part of the same campaign based on HUMINT sources} } % Element Collection \cheatbox[\faicon{object-group}] [Allow groupping multiple elements into a single collection] [Grouping \events together if they are part of the same campaing] [\distributable] [Group element into collection] {\linkdest{collection}Element Collection} { } \end{multicols*}
