Introduction

The MISP threat sharing platform is a free and open source software helping information sharing of threat intelligence including cyber security indicators, financial fraud or counter-terrorism information. The MISP project includes multiple sub-projects to support the operational requirements of analysts and improve the overall quality of information shared.

Taxonomies that can be used in MISP (2.4) and other information sharing tool and expressed in Machine Tags (Triple Tags). A machine tag is composed of a namespace (MUST), a predicate (MUST) and an (OPTIONAL) value. Machine tags are often called triple tag due to their format. The following document is generated from the machine-readable JSON describing the MISP taxonomies.

Funding and Support

The MISP project is financially and resource supported by CIRCL Computer Incident Response Center Luxembourg .

A CEF (Connecting Europe Facility) funding under CEF-TC-2016-3 - Cyber Security has been granted from 1st September 2017 until 31th August 2019 as Improving MISP as building blocks for next-generation information sharing.

This should be filled out even when the attacker is not a national government. When a campaign is run by a non-state political actor, the nation of origin of that non-state political actor is filled in this field, if that information is available. Likewise, this should be filled out if the preponderance of attacker activity originates from within a single nation. Distinguishable territories are nations.

target-category

When a campaign targets an actor, the category of that actor is filled in this field, if that information is available. Categories are not mutually exclusive. All relevant categories can be added.

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="government-civilian"

Government: Civilian

The governing body and functions of a state, including national leaders, institutions, and non-military departments and agencies. Includes incumbent politicians running for re-election.

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="government-military"

Government: Military

Military departments and agencies which enjoy the sanctioned use of force

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="political-party"

Political Party

Organized competitors for political power who can obtain or wield power directly. Includes politicians currently in office, as well as non-incumbent politicians running for office who are associated with a political party. Can also be an individual working for a party.

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="non-state-political-actor"

Non-State Political Actor

Organized competitors for political power who can obtain or wield power, even if indirectly; not necessarily enfranchised. Non-state political actors are formally organized, coordinated, and cohesive. e.g. Greenpeace, the NRA, or the KKK.

Includes groups that contract out to the government, individuals looking for financial gain, and mercenaries.

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="influential-individuals"

Influential Individuals

Individuals who are influential but who do not belong to a ruling government coalition. Includes groups of individuals who are not formally organized but work together. e.g. journalists, former politicians, or organized 4channers. For individuals who operate their own charitable foundations (and thus could be placed in Non-State Political Actor), coding depends on whether or not the disinformation is foremost targeting the individual, their foundation, or both.

DFRLab-dichotomies-of-disinformation:target-category="electorate"

DML

DML namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

The Detection Maturity Level (DML) model is a capability maturity model for referencing ones maturity in detecting cyber attacks. It’s designed for organizations who perform intel-driven detection and response and who put an emphasis on having a mature detection program.

8

If the actor is part of a larger organized operation they may be receiving their goals from a higher level source or handler. Depending on how organized and sophisticated the adversary’s campaigns are, these goals may not even be shared with the operator(s) themselves. In cases of non-targeted threat actors, this may be much less organized or distributed. Goals are nearly impossible to detect (directly) but they’re almost always the toughest question C-level leaders ask about post-breach. "Who was it and why?" These kinds of questions can never truthfully be answered unless you’re operating at Detection Maturity Level 8 against your adversary and can prove reliably that you know what their goals are. Short of that, it’s guessing at what the adversary’s true intentions were based on behavioral observations made at lower DMLs (e.g. data stolen, directories listed, employees or programs targeted, etc). I anticipate less than a handful of organizations truly operate at this level, consistently, against the threat actors they face because it’s nearly impossible to detect based on goals alone.

DML:8

Goals

7

 If the adversary's high level goal is to "replicate Acme Company's Super Awesome Product Foo in 2 years or less" their supporting strategies might include:
1.  Implant physical persons into the companies that produce this technology, in positions with physical access to the information necessary to fulfill this goal.
2.  Compromise these organizations via cyber attack, and exfiltrate data from the systems containing the information necessary to fulfill this goal.
For less targeted attacks, the strategy may be completely different, with shorter durations or different objectives. The important distinguishing factor about Goals (DML-8) and Strategy (DML-7) is that they are largely subjective in nature.  They are very non-technical, and are often reflective of the adversary's (or their handler's) true intentions (and strategies for fulfilling those intentions).  They represent what the adversary wants.  For these reasons, they are not easily detectable via conventional cyber means for most private organizations.   It's very common for DML-8 or DML-7 to not even be on the day-to-day radar of most Detection or Response specialists, and if they are it's typically in the context of having received a strategic intelligence report from an intelligence source about the adversary.

To successfully operate at DML-6, one must be able to reliably detect a tactic being employed regardless of the Technique or Procedure used by the adversary, the Tools they chose to use, or the Artifacts and Atomic Indicators left behind as a result of employing the tactic. While this may sound impossible on the surface, it absolutely is possible. In nearly all cases, tactics are not detected directly by a single indicator or artifact serving as the smoking gun, or a single detection signature or analytic technique. Tactics become known only after observation of multiple activities in aggregate, with respect to time and circumstance. As a result, detection of tactics are usually done by skilled analysts, rather than technical correlation or analytics systems.

DML:6

Tactics

5

From a maturity perspective, being able to detect an adversary’s techniques is superior to being able to detect their procedures. The primary difference being techniques are specific to an individual. So when respecting this distinction, the ability to detect a specific actor operating within your environment by technique exclusively is an advantage. The best analogy to this is a rifled barrel, which leaves uniquely identifiable characteristics in the side of a bullet. Because of this, ballistics specialists can forensically match a spent round to the exact weapon from which it was fired with a high degree of certainty. Not just any weapon by calibur or model, but the exact weapon used to fire that specific round. Human beings are creatures of habit, and most adversaries aren’t aware of the fact that every time they attack they’re leaving evidence of their personal techniques behind for us to find. The same applies for the tool builders writing the tools these adversaries use. It’s our obligation to find these distinctions and ensure we’re looking for them. It’s personal behavior and habits that are the hardest for humans to change, so put the hurt on your adversaries by finding creative ways to detect their behaviors and habits in your environment.

DML:5

Techniques

4

Given today’s detection technology, and readily available correlation and analytics techniques, it’s amazing that more organizations haven’t reached Detection Maturity Level 4 for most of their adversaries. Procedures are one of the most effective ways of detecting adversary activity and can really inflict the most pain against lesser experienced "B-teams". In it’s most simple form, detecting a procedure is as simple as detecting a sequence of two or more of the individual steps employed by the actor. The goal here is to isolate activities that the adversary appears to perform methodically, two or more times during an incident.

DML:4

Procedures

3

Being able to detect at DML-3 means you can reliably detect the adversary’s tools, regardless of minor functionality changes to the tool, or the Artifacts or Atomic Indicators it may leave behind. Detecting tools falls into two main areas. The first is detecting the transfer and presence of the tool. This includes being able to observe the tool being transferred over the network, being able to locate it sitting at rest on a file system, or being able to identify it loaded in memory. The second, and more important area of tool detection, is detecting the tool reliably by functionality. For example, let’s take a given webshell that has 25 functions. If we want to claim DML-3 level detection for this webshell we have to exercise each of those 25 functions and understand what each of them do. What do they look like at the host, network, and event log level when they are exercised? We then aim to build detections for as many of those 25 functions across those data domains as we possibly can, reliably, balancing false positives and other constraints. The reason behind this is simple, we want to be able to detect this version of the tool and as many future variants of the tool as we can by function that it performs. If the adversary decides to change up 5 of the 25 functions for which we have detections, we’re still detecting the entire tool. In order for the adversary to use this tool completely undetected in our environment, they’ll be forced to change every one of those functions; or at least the ones that we were able to reliably build detections against.

DML:3

Tools

DML-2 is where most organizations spend too much of their resources; attempting to collect what they call "threat intelligence" in the form of Host & Network Artifacts. The reality is, these are merely just indicators that are observed either during or after the attack. They’re like symptoms of the flu but not the flu itself. I often use the analogy "chasing the vapor trail" when I think of DML-2 because chasing after Host & Network Artifacts is much like chasing the vapor trail behind an aircraft. We know the enemy aircraft is up there in front of us somewhere, if we just keep chasing this vapor trial we’ll eventually catch up to the aircraft and find our enemy right? Wrong. Having a mature detection and response program means your operating above DML-2 and you’re actually locked onto the aircraft itself. You know how it operates, you know what it’s capabilities are, you know the Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures of it’s pilot and you can almost predict what it’s next moves might be. This is precisely why good Cyber Intelligence Analysts will almost never attribute activity to a specific threat actor, group, or country based on just Host & Network Artifacts alone; they understand this DML concept and realize when they’re likely just staring at the vapor trail. They understand that in reality the vapor trail (indicators) could be from any number of aircraft (tools), with any number of pilots (actors) behind the stick.

DML:2

Host & Network Artifacts

1

These are the atomic particles that make up Host & Network artifacts. If you’re detecting at Detection Maturity Level 1, it means you are probably taking "feeds of intel" from various sharing organizations and vendors in the form of lists, like domains and IP addresses, and feeding them into your detection technologies. Let me be clear on my position here. There are a few, and I mean a very precious few, circumstances where this makes sense and can be done reliably. These are edge cases where specific atomic indicators have a high enough "shelf life" where it makes sense to go ahead and create detection capabilities from them. Examples of this include unique strings found inside a binary, or perhaps an adversary is foolish enough to sit on the same recon, delivery, C2, or exfiltration infrastructure allowing you to detect reliably on their domain names or IP addresses. These might be viable cases where detecting on atomic indicator alone makes sense. Unfortunately, for the remaining 99% of the time, attempting to detect on this kind of data is suboptimal, for a number of reasons.

DML:1

Atomic IOCs

0

For organizations who either don’t operate at DML-1 or higher, or they don’t even know where they operate on this scale, we have Detection Maturity Level - 0. Instead of pointing out all the negative things associated with this level, I’ll take the high road and lend a bit of positive encouragement. Congratulations, you are at ground zero. It can only get better from here.

approved-category-of-action

approved-category-of-action namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

A pre-approved category of action for indicators being shared with partners (MIMIC).

cat1

Minimal Exposure - Passive Collection: CAT 1 actions provide the least exposure of an indicator, either through adversary observation or disclosure. Usage of the indicator is restricted to passive monitoring on Government or Cleared Partner networks, or through a classified passive capability or Operation. CAT 1 actions do not interact with or affect malicious network traffic.

approved-category-of-action:cat1

Cat1

cat2

Moderate Exposure - Government or Cleared Partner Internal Active Collection: CAT 2 actions expose the usage of an indicator through non-disruptive collection techniques which require interactions with an adversary, within Government or Cleared Partner networks. While it is not the intent to disrupt the adversary it is possible that an adversary may discover they are subject to such techniques.

approved-category-of-action:cat2

Cat2

cat3

Moderate Exposure - Government or Cleared Partner Internal Countermeasures: CAT 3 actions expose the usage of an indicator through inward-facing countermeasures. Malicious network traffic is affected in some manner, however the results are not directly observable to the adversary or external parties and is, therefore, more difficult to attribute as a deliberate action. Usage of the indicator is restricted to Government and Cleared Partner networks, or a classified capability or Operation. This implies a lower likelihood for non-approved disclosures.

approved-category-of-action:cat3

Cat3

cat4

Moderate Exposure - Government Actions on External Networks: CAT 4 actions expose the usage of an indicator through actions which occur on internet accessible networks, without the authorization of the network or information owner. Such actions are conducted as classified Operations under the auspices of national legislative and compliance provisions. Action consequences are observable to the adversary and other, public parties and it is possible they may be attributed as Government sanctioned actions.

approved-category-of-action:cat4

Cat4

cat5

High Exposure - Public Actions Which Enable Internal Countermeasures: CAT 5 actions expose the usage of an indicator through the public release of information which enables internal actions on networks not owned and controlled by the Government (i.e. industry, commercial or foreign governments). These actions are official public releases and are attributable as Government sanctioned actions.

approved-category-of-action:cat5

Cat5

cat6

High Exposure - Actions on Adversary Infrastructure: CAT 6 actions expose the usage of an indicator through actions which occur on adversary owned networks, without the authorization of the network or information owner. Such actions are conducted as classified Operations under the auspices of national legislative and compliance provisions. Action consequences are observable to the adversary, and possibly other public parties, and it is possible they may deduce this as FVEY action.

approved-category-of-action:cat6

Cat6

course-of-action

course-of-action namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

A Course Of Action analysis considers six potential courses of action for the development of a cyber security capability.

passive

course-of-action:passive="discover"

The discover action is a 'historical look at the data'. This action heavily relies on your capability to store logs for a reasonable amount of time and have them accessible for searching. Typically, this type of action is applied against security information and event management (SIEM) or stored network data. The goal is to determine whether you have seen a specific indicator in the past.

course-of-action:passive="detect"

The passive action is setting up detection rules of an indicator for future traffic. These actions are most often executed via an intrusion detection system (IDS) or a specific logging rule on your firewall or application. It can also be configured as an alert in a SIEM when a specific condition is triggered.

active

course-of-action:active="deny"

The deny action prevents the event from taking place. Common examples include a firewall block or a proxy filter.

course-of-action:active="disrupt"

Disruption makes the event fail as it is occurring. Examples include quarantining or memory protection measures.

course-of-action:active="degrade"

Degrading will not immediately fail an event, but it will slow down the further actions of the attacker. This tactic allows you to catch up during an incident response process, but you have to consider that the attackers may eventually succeed in achieving their objectives. Throttling bandwidth is one way to degrade an intrusion.

course-of-action:active="deceive"

Deception allows you to learn more about the intentions of the attacker by making them think the action was successful. One way to do this is to put a honeypot in place and redirect the traffic, based on an indicator, towards the honeypot.

course-of-action:active="destroy"

The destroy action is rarely for 'usual' defenders, as this is an offensive action against the attacker. These actions, including physical destructive actions and arresting the attackers, are usually left to law enforcement agencies.

It is critical that the CSIRT provide consistent and timely response to the customer, and that sensitive information is handled appropriately. This document provides the guidelines needed for CSIRT Incident Managers (IM) to classify the case category, criticality level, and sensitivity level for each CSIRT case. This information will be entered into the Incident Tracking System (ITS) when a case is created. Consistent case classification is required for the CSIRT to provide accurate reporting to management on a regular basis. In addition, the classifications will provide CSIRT IM’s with proper case handling procedures and will form the basis of SLA’s between the CSIRT and other Company departments.

dcso-sharing

dcso-sharing namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

Taxonomy defined in the DCSO MISP Event Guide. It provides guidance for the creation and consumption of MISP events in a way that minimises the extra effort for the sending party, while enhancing the usefulness for receiving parties.

event-type

dcso-sharing:event-type="Observation"

This event describes traits and indicators closely related to a single entity, like an email campaign or sighting of a reference sample on VirusTotal. Events of this type are typically created by CSOC staff and may be verified by analysts. Observed and verified indicators would be consumed by automated filtering systems in order to support near-time threat prevention. In retrospect, observations could be correlated with reports and analysis events in order to help understand the motivation for an attack and to reassess the associated risk.

dcso-sharing:event-type="Incident"

This event describes traits and indicators related to a security incident. As such, the event may refer to multiple entities like organizations, bank account numbers, files, and URLs. Events of this type contain first-hand information, that is, the reporting organization took part in the analysis of the incident. Use event type "Report" for second-hand information. Events of this type are typically created and consumed by analysts.

dcso-sharing:event-type="Report"

Traceability of indicators can be essential to document compliance of processes with legal obligations or company regulations. This event preserves a report to document the origin and context of indicators. Events of this type need to be checked by a human to ensure correct reproduction of indicators and context. Intended consumers are automated processes. Events may also serve as a basis for analysis reports or to justify preventive measures. If your organization is or was directly involved in an incident and you want to provide a first-hand account, then please use event type "Incident" instead.

dcso-sharing:event-type="Analysis"

This event builds on "observation", "incident", and "report" events; adds enrichments; and provides context. Events of this type will be created by analysts with support by automated tools. Analysts are also the main consumers.

dcso-sharing:event-type="Collection"

This event collects unrelated IoCs. For example, an event could combine all network IoCs that were learned of during a day or a week from events of other types.

diamond-model

diamond-model namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

The Diamond Model for Intrusion Analysis establishes the basic atomic element of any intrusion activity, the event, composed of four core features: adversary, infrastructure, capability, and victim.

Adversary

diamond-model:Adversary

An adversary is the actor/organization responsible for utilizing a capability against the victim to achieve their intent.

Capability

diamond-model:Capability

The capability describes the tools and/or techniques of the adversary used in the event. It includes all means to affect the victim from the most manual “unsophisticated” methods (e.g., manual password guessing) to the most sophisticated automated techniques.

Infrastructure

diamond-model:Infrastructure

The infrastructure feature describes the physical and/or logical communication structures the adversary uses to deliver a capability, maintain control of capabilities (e.g., commandand-control/C2), and effect results from the victim (e.g., exfiltrate data). As with the other features, the infrastructure can be as specific or broad as necessary. Examples include: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, domain names, e-mail addresses, Morse code flashes from a phone’s voice-mail light watched from across a street, USB devices found in a parking lot and inserted into a workstation, or the compromising emanations from hardware (e.g., Van Eck Phreaking) being collected by a nearby listening post.

Victim

diamond-model:Victim

A victim is the target of the adversary and against whom vulnerabilities and exposures are exploited and capabilities used. A victim can be described in whichever way necessary and appropriate: organization, person, target email address, IP address, domain, etc. However, it is useful to define the victim persona and their assets separately as they serve different analytic functions. Victim personae are useful in non-technical analysis such as cyber-victimology and social-political centered approaches whereas victim assets are associated with common technical approaches such as vulnerability analysis..

estimative-language

estimative-language namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

Estimative language to describe quality and credibility of underlying sources, data, and methodologies based Intelligence Community Directive 203 (ICD 203) and JP 2-0, Joint Intelligence

likelihood-probability

Properly expresses and explains uncertainties associated with major analytic judgments: Analytic products should indicate and explain the basis for the uncertainties associated with major analytic judgments, specifically the likelihood of occurrence of an event or development, and the analyst’s confidence in the basis for this judgment. Degrees of likelihood encompass a full spectrum from remote to nearly certain. Analysts' confidence in an assessment or judgment may be based on the logic and evidentiary base that underpin it, including the quantity and quality of source material, and their understanding of the topic. Analytic products should note causes of uncertainty (e.g., type, currency, and amount of information, knowledge gaps, and the nature of the issue) and explain how uncertainties affect analysis (e.g., to what degree and how a judgment depends on assumptions). As appropriate, products should identify indicators that would alter the levels of uncertainty for major analytic judgments. Consistency in the terms used and the supporting information and logic advanced is critical to success in expressing uncertainty, regardless of whether likelihood or confidence expressions are used.

Exclusive flag set which means the values or predicate below must be set exclusively.

confidence-in-analytic-judgment

Confidence in a judgment is based on three factors: number of key assumptions required, the credibility and diversity of sourcing in the knowledge base, and the strength of argumentation. Each factor should be assessed independently and then in concert with the other factors to determine the confidence level. Multiple judgments in a product may contain varying levels of confidence. Confidence levels are stated as Low, Moderate, and High.

Exclusive flag set which means the values or predicate below must be set exclusively.

ot-communication-interface

ics:ot-communication-interface="rs-232"

RS-232 (comm port)

Serial communication with an implementation comprises 2 data lines, 6 control lines and one ground.

ics:ot-communication-interface="rs-422, rs-423 or rs-485"

RS-422, RS-423 or RS-485

RS-422 is compatible to RS-232, used in situations where long distances are required, it can drive up to 1200m at 100kbit/s, and up to 1Mbit/s over short distances. RS-422 uses a differential driver, uses a four-conductor cable, and up to ten receivers can be on a multi-dropped network or bus. RS-485 is like RS-422 but RS-422 allows just one driver with multiple receivers whereas RS-485 supports multiple drivers and receivers RS-485 also allows up to thirty two (32) multi-dropped receivers or transmitters on a multi-dropped network or bus. At 90 kbit/s, the maximum cable length is 1250 m, and at 10 Mbit/s it is 15 m. The devices are half-duplex (i.e. send or receive, but not both at the same time). For more nodes or long distances, you can use repeaters that regenerate the signals and begin a new RS-485 line.

ics:ot-communication-interface="ieee-488-gpib"

IEEE-488 (GPIB)

Known as Hewlett-Packard HP-IB but was renamed as GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus) by the IEEE-488 (1975). IEEE-488 interface comprises 8 data lines, 8 control lines and 8 ground lines. Up to 15 devices can be interconnected on one bus. Each device is assigned a unique primary address, ranging from 4-30, by setting the address switches on the device. Devices are linked in either a daisy-chain or star (or some combination) configuration with up to 20 m of shielded 24-conductor cable. A maximum separation of 4 m is specified between any two devices, and an average of 2m over the entire bus. The data transfer rate can be up to 1 Mbyte/s. Three types of devices can be connected to an IEEE-488 bus (Listeners, Talkers, and Controllers)

ics:ot-communication-interface="ieee-1394-firewire"

IEEE-1394 (FireWire)

The IEEE-1394 defines a serial serial interface that can use the bus cable to power devices. Firewire transmits data in packets and incurs some overhead as a result. Firewire frames are 125 msec long which means that despite a 'headline' transfer speed of 400 Mbit/s Firewire can be substantially slower in responding to instruments' service requests. Firewire uses a peer-peer protocol, similar to IEEE-488. Using standard cable, the maximum length bus comprises 16 hops of 4.5m each. Each hop connects two devices, but each physical device can contain four logical nodes. A Firewire cable contains two twisted-pairs (signals and clock) and two untwisted conductors (power and ground).

ics:ot-communication-interface="usb-universal-serial-bus"

USB (Universal Serial Bus)

USB is the bus topology, and host-target protocol, mean that giving existing PC-based instruments a USB port not as trivial as it could be, but instruments with USB ports are coming onto the ICS market increasing numbers. USB 1.1 has many features as serial data transmission, device powering, data sent in 1 ms packets. USB offers 1.5- and 12-Mbit/s speeds. Individual devices can use the bus for a maximum of 50% of the time. In practice, the maximum rate is not more than 0.6 Mbyte/s. USB 2.0 specification was released in 2000. In addition to increasing the signaling rate from 12 MHz to 480 MHz, the specification describes a more advanced feature set and uses bandwidth more efficiently than 'Classic' USB. Version 2 of USB seems likely to prevent IEEE 1394 becoming widely adopted in instrument systems.

ics:ot-communication-interface="ethernet"

Ethernet

Instruments with ethernet interfaces have the great advantage that they can be accessed and controlled from a desktop anywhere in the world. A web-enabled ICS device behaves can be operated with standard browser. Systems with comm based on these interface can make use of existing Ethernet networks and connecting an instrument directly into the internet makes sharing of data easy. Fast data transfer is possible. However, when connected to the public internet it is difficult to secure or maintain its security and a full evaluation of the risks involved for this interface usage is very essential.

information-security-indicators

information-security-indicators namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

A full set of operational indicators for organizations to use to benchmark their security posture.

IEX

Indicators of this category give information on the occurrence of incidents caused by external malicious threat sources.

information-security-indicators:IEX="FGY.1"

Forged domain or brand names impersonating or imitating legitimate and genuine names

Forged domains are addresses very close to the domain names legitimately filed with registration companies or organizations (forged domains are harmful only when actively used to entice customers to the website for fraudulent purposes). It also includes domain names that imitate another domain name or a brand.

information-security-indicators:IEX="FGY.2"

Wholly or partly forged websites (excluding parking pages) spoiling company’s image or business

Forged websites correspond to two main threats (forgery of sites in order to steal personal data such as account identifiers and passwords, forgery of services in order to capitalize on a brand and to generate turnover that creates unfair competition). In this case, reference is often made to phishing (1st usage) or pharming.

information-security-indicators:IEX="SPM.1"

Not requested received bulk messages (spam) targeting organization’s registered users

Spam are messages received in company’s or organization’s messaging systems in the framework of mass and not individualized campaigns, luring into clicking dangerous URLs (possibly Trojan laden) or enticing to carry out harmful to concerned individual actions.

information-security-indicators:IEX="PHI.1"

Phishing targeting company’s customers' workstations spoiling company’s image or business

Phishing involves a growing number of business sectors (financial organizations, e-commerce sites, online games, social sites etc.). It includes attacks via e-mail with messages that contain either malicious URL links (to forged websites) or malicious URL links (to malware laden genuine websites).

information-security-indicators:IEX="PHI.2"

Spear phishing or whaling carried out using social engineering and targeting organization’s specific registered users

Spear phishing are "spoofed" and customized messages looking like a usual professional relationship or an authority, and asking to click on or open dangerous URL links or dangerous attachments (malware laden).

information-security-indicators:IEX="INT.1"

Intrusion attempts on externally accessible servers

Attempts are here systematic scans (excluding network reconnaissance) and abnormal and suspicious requests on externally accessible servers, detected by an IDS/IPS or not.

information-security-indicators:IEX="INT.2"

Intrusion on externally accessible servers

Intrusion usually targets servers that host personal data (including data subject to regulations such as PCI DSS, for example). 3 objectives or motivations can be found wherever an intrusion exists: data theft (see before), installation of transfer links towards unlawful and rogue websites, getting a permanent internal access by installation of a backdoor for further purposes. This indicator does not include the figures from the Defacement and Misappropriation indicators, both of which however starting with an intrusion. However, it includes all means and methods to get access to servers, i.e. purely technical means (such as Command execution/injection attack) or identity usurpation to log on an admin or user account (see ETSI GS ISI 002 [4] specifications).

information-security-indicators:IEX="INT.3"

Intrusions on internal servers

This kind of incident typically comes after a PC malware installation or an intrusion on an externally accessible server often followed by a lateral movement. This indicator does not include the figures from the Misappropriation indicator which may however start with an intrusion on an internal server. This indicator includes the so-called APTs (Advanced Persistent Threats), which constitute however only a small part of this indicator. APTs are long lasting and stealthy incidents with large compromises of data through outbound links, which is not the case of most incidents of the IEX_INT.3 type. This type of incident is often the result of targeted attacks.

information-security-indicators:IEX="DFC.1"

Obvious and visible websites defacements

Obvious defacements measures the defacement of homepages and of the most consulted pages of sites.

information-security-indicators:IEX="MIS.1"

Servers resources misappropriation by external attackers

This indicator measures the amount of resources of servers misappropriated by an external attacker after a successful intrusion (on an externally accessible or an internal server).

information-security-indicators:IEX="DOS.1"

Denial of service attacks on websites

This indicator measures denial-of-service attacks against websites, carried out either by sending of harmful requests (DoS), by sending a massive flow coming from multiple distributed sites (DDoS) or via other techniques. Due to the current state of the art of attack detection, the indicator is limited to DDoS attacks.

information-security-indicators:IEX="MLW.1"

Attempts to install malware on workstations

Malware installation attempts are detected by current conventional means (Antivirus and base IPS) and blocked by the same means. This indicator (which includes desktop and laptop PC based workstations, but does not include the different types of other workstations and mobile smart devices) provides an approximate insight into the malicious external pressure suffered in this regard. This indicator should be associated with indicator on successful malware installation in order to assess the actual effectiveness of conventional detection and blockage means in the fight against malware.

information-security-indicators:IEX="MLW.2"

Attempts to install malware on servers

Malware installation attempts are detected by current conventional means (antivirus and base IPS) and blocked by the same means. This indicator gives an approximate insight into the malicious external pressure suffered in this regard. This indicator should be associated with indicator on successful malware installation in order to assess the actual effectiveness of conventional detection and blockage means in the fight against malware.

information-security-indicators:IEX="MLW.3"

Malware installed on workstations

Malware could be not detected by conventional means (lack of activation or appropriate update), or noninventoried and/or specific very stealthy incidents, most of the time not detectable by conventional means (AV and standard IPS), consequently requiring other supplementary detection means (network or WS load, outbound links, advanced network devices as DPI tools, users themselves reporting to help desks). This indicator (which includes desktop and laptop Windows-based workstations, but does not include the different types of other workstations and mobile smart devices) therefore applies to both classical viruses and worms, as well as all new malware such as Trojan horses (which are defined as malware meant to data theft or malicious transactions) or bots (which are defined here as vectors for spam or DDoS attacks).

information-security-indicators:IEX="MLW.4"

Malware installed on internal servers

Malware could be not detected by conventional means (lack of activation or of appropriate update), or noninventoried and/or specific very stealthy incidents, most of the time not detectable by conventional means (AV and standard IPS), consequently requiring other supplementary detection means (network or server load, outbound links, advanced network devices as DPI tools, administrators themselves). This indicator therefore applies to both classical viruses and worms, as well as all new malware such as Trojan horses (which are defined as malware meant to data theft or malicious transactions)

information-security-indicators:IEX="PHY.1"

Human intrusion into the organization’s perimeter

This indicator measures illicit entrance of individuals into security perimeter.

IMF

Indicators of this category provides information on the occurrence of incidents caused by malfunctions, breakdowns or human errors.

information-security-indicators:IMF="BRE.1"

Workstations accidental breakdowns or malfunctions

Breakdowns or malfunctions apply to both hardware and software, caused by system errors (components failure or bugs).

information-security-indicators:IMF="BRE.2"

Servers accidental breakdowns or malfunctions

Breakdowns or malfunctions apply to both hardware and software, caused by system errors (components failure or bugs).

information-security-indicators:IMF="BRE.3"

Mainframes accidental breakdowns or malfunctions

Breakdowns or malfunctions apply to both hardware and software, caused by system errors (components failure or bugs).

information-security-indicators:IMF="BRE.4"

Networks accidental breakdowns or malfunctions

Breakdowns or malfunctions apply to both hardware and software, caused by system errors (components failure or bugs).

information-security-indicators:IMF="MDL.1"

Delivery of email to wrong recipient

This indicator measures errors from the sender when selecting or typing email addresses leading to misdelivery incidents. Consequences may be very serious when confidentiality is critical.

information-security-indicators:IMF="LOM.1"

Loss (or theft) of mobile devices belonging to the organization

This indicator measures the loss of all types of systems containing sensitive or not information belonging to the organization, whether encrypted or not (laptop computers, USB tokens, CD-ROMs, diskettes, magnetic tapes, smartphones, tablets, etc.). In some cases, it could be difficult to differentiate losses from thefts.

information-security-indicators:IMF="LOG.1"

Downtime or malfunction of the log production function with possible legal impact

This type of event could have two main causes: an accidental system malfunction or a system manipulation error by an administrator. Logs taken into account here are systems logs and applications logs of all servers.

information-security-indicators:IMF="LOG.2"

Absence of possible tracking of the person involved in a security event with possible legal impact

Concerns unique data related to a given and known to organization user (identifier tied to application software or directory). This indicator is a sub-set of indicator IMF_LOG.1.

information-security-indicators:IMF="LOG.3"

Downtime or malfunction of the log production function for recordings with evidential value for access to or handling of information that, at this level, is subject to law or regulatory requirements

This indicator primarily relates to Personal Identifiable Information (PII) protected by privacy laws, to information falling under the PCI-DSS regulation, to information falling under European regulation in the area of breach notification (Telcos and ISPs to begin with), and to information about electronic exchanges between employees and the exterior (electronic messaging and Internet connection). This indicator does not include possible difficulties pertaining to proof forwarding from field operations to governance (state-of-the-art unavailable). This indicator is a sub-set of indicator IMF_LOG.1, but can be identical to this one in advanced organizations.

IDB

Indicators of this category provide information on the occurrence of incidents regarding internal deviant behaviours (including especially usurpation of rights or of identity).

information-security-indicators:IDB="UID.1"

User impersonation

A person within the organization impersonates a registered user (employee, partner, contractor, external service provider) using identifier, passwords or authentication devices that had previously been obtained in an illicit manner (using a social engineering technique or not). This measures cases of usurpation for malicious purposes, and not ones that relate to user-friendly usage. Moreover, assumption is made that ID/Password is the main way of authentication

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.1"

Privilege escalation by exploitation of software or configuration vulnerability on an externally accessible server

Exploited vulnerabilities are typically tied to the underlying OS that supports the Web application, exploited notably through injection of additional characters in URL links. This behaviour specifically involves external service providers and company’s business partners that wish to access additional information or to launch unlawful actions (for example, service providers seeking information about their competitors). This type of behaviour is less frequent amongst employees, since it is often easier to get the same results by means of social engineering methods.

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.2"

Privilege escalation on a server or central application by social engineering

It is often easier to get the same results by means of social engineering methods than with technical means. Help desk teams are often involved in this kind of behaviour.

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.3"

Use on a server or central application of administrator rights illicitly granted by an administrator

Illicitly granting administrator privileges generally comes from simple errors or more worrisome negligence on the part of the administrators (malicious action is rarer). The case of forgotten temporary rights (see next indicator), is not included in this indicator.

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.4"

Use on a server or central application of time-limited granted rights after the planned period

This indicator measures situations where time-limited user accounts (created for training, problem resolution, emergency access, test, etc.) are still in use after the initial planned period.

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.5"

Abuse of privileges by an administrator on a server or central application

The motivation of rights usurpation by an administrator is often the desire to breach the confidentiality of sensitive data (for example, human resources data). This indicator is similar to the indicator IDB_RGH.6 (but with consequences that may be however often potentially more serious).

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.6"

Abuse of privileges by an operator or a plain user on a server or central application

This indicator applies for example to authorized users having access to personal identifiable information aboutcelebrities with no real need for their job (thereby violating the "right to know").

information-security-indicators:IDB="RGH.7"

Illicit use on a server or central application of rights not removed after departure or position change within the organization

This indicator also takes into account the problem of generic accounts (whose password might have been changed each time a user knowing this password is leaving organization).

information-security-indicators:IDB="MIS.1"

Server resources misappropriation by an internal source

This indicators measures misappropriation of on-line IT resources for one’s own use (personal, association etc.).

information-security-indicators:IDB="IAC.1"

Access to hacking Website

This indicator measures unauthorized access to a hacking Website from an internal workstation

information-security-indicators:IDB="LOG.1"

Deactivating of logs recording by an administrator

This event is generally decided and deployed by an administrator in order to improve performance of the system under his/her responsibility (illicit voluntary stoppage). This indicator is a reduced subset of indicator IUS_RGH.5

IWH

Indicators of this category are indicators that concern all categories of incidents.

information-security-indicators:IWH="VNP.1"

Exploitation of a software vulnerability without available patch

This indicators measures security incidents that are the result of an exploitation of a disclosed software vulnerability that has no available patch (with or without an applied workaround measure). It is used to assess the intensity of the exploitation of recently disclosed software vulnerabilities (zero day or not). Patching here applies only to standard software (excluding bespoke software), and the scope is limited to workstations (OS, browsers and various add-ons and plug-ins, office automation standard software).

information-security-indicators:IWH="VNP.2"

Exploitation of a non-patched software vulnerability

This indicators measures security incidents that are the result of the exploitation of a non-patched software vulnerability though a patch exists. It is used to assess effectiveness or application of patching-related organization and processes and tools (patching not launched). It is linked with indicator VOR_VNP.2 that is intended to assess problems of exceeding the "time limit for the window of exposure to risks". It has the same limitations as IWH_VNP.1 regarding scope.

information-security-indicators:IWH="VNP.3"

Exploitation of a poorly-patched software vulnerability

This indicator measures security incidents that are the result of the exploitation of a poorly patched software vulnerability. It is used to assess effectiveness of patching-related organization and processes and tools (process launched but patch not operational - Cf. no reboot, etc.). It is linked with indicator VOR_VNP.1, IWH_VNP.1 and IWH_VNP.2. It has the same limitations as IWH_VNP.1 regarding scope.

information-security-indicators:IWH="VCN.1"

Exploitation of a configuration flaw

This indicator measures security incidents that are the result of the exploitation of a configuration flaw on servers or workstations. A configuration flaw should be considered as a nonconformity against state-of-the-art security policy.

information-security-indicators:IWH="UKN.1"

Not categorized security incidents

This indicator measures all types of incidents that are new and/or a complex combination of more basic incidents and cannot be fully qualified and therefore precisely categorized.

information-security-indicators:IWH="UNA.1"

Security incidents on non-inventoried and/or not managed assets

This indicator measures security incidents tied to assets (on servers) non-inventoried and not managed by appointed teams. It is a key indicator insofar as a high percentage of incidents corresponds with this indicator on average in the profession (according to some public surveys).

VBH

Indicators of this category apply to the existence of abnormal behaviours that could lead to security incidents.

information-security-indicators:VBH="PRC.1"

Server accessed by an administrator with unsecure protocols

This indicator measures the use of insecure protocols set up by an administrator to get access to organizationbased externally accessible servers making an external intrusion possible. Insecure protocol means unencrypted, without time-out, with poor authentication means etc. (for example Telnet).

information-security-indicators:VBH="PRC.2"

P2P client in a workstation

Internet of Things taxonomy, based on IOT UK report https://iotuk.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/IOT-Taxonomy-Report.pdf

TCom

IoT projects vary tremendously in terms of their technical sophistication. Digital Catapult has developed a scale based on technology complexity (TCom) that enables us to understand the state of IoT in the UK, and to assess what is currently being researched, trialled or deployed in real-life implementations.

iot:TCom="0"

Unidentiable object

Dumb/passive objects . Not connected, identified or monitored. Example: Any unconnected, unidentified object

iot:TCom="1"

Identifiable object

Identifiable dumb/passive objects with a virtual existence that can meaningfully be counted/tracked by online systems. Examples: RFID Tags, barcoded or QR-coded objects

iot:TCom="2"

Connected object

Connected objects . Objects linked to an IP network, with some means of reading, programming or controlling them . These should be counted as elements within the IoT universe, but they are often underused assets. Examples: Printers, doorbells, IP connected fire alarms or security systems

iot:TCom="3"

Connected homogeneous object

Connected broadly homogeneous objects in a simple integrated system, whether the benefit of that system accrues to the end user or the system provider. Examples: Networks of multiple temperature sensors within a single building or campus . Environmental monitoring networks, wearable devices (such as Fitbit or other wellness technologies)

iot:TCom="4"

Connected heterogeneous objects

Connected heterogeneous objects in a single, integrated system . This involves taking data from a variety of sensors of different types, all deployed for the same end user or organisation to help improve processes, make better decisions or change outcomes. Examples: The deployment of a range of sensors in a care home or hospital or the combination of parking, traffic volume and traffic control data in an urban road management system

iot:TCom="5"

Different objects in similar domain

Different objects deployed across multiple interconnected systems for multiple organisations, in multiple locations, all within a similar domain .System supports analysis of aggregated data derived from all deployment locations. Examples: Partnering university campuses’ security cameras, fire alarms, temperature sensors, access control systems and energy monitoring systems integrated into a single unified control and monitoring solution

iot:TCom="6"

Different objects in multiple connected domains

As for TCom 5, but where multiple domains are connected . This involves gathering data from a variety of sensor types, across a variety of systems and ecosystems, and creating combined views of the data that offer new sources of value (economic or social) or where there is a high degree of automation across homogeneous systems. Examples: Smart cities where multiple organisations, or different city departments and their partners, have built applications that draw on diverse sets of data from multiple sources to develop or improve services. Such applications might include the adjustment of street lighting in response to incoming data on night-time police activity levels, or the adjustment of traffic lights in response to real-time data sources about local environment data, or current people movement data based on mobile phone location data. Or, in the second case, the automated adjustment of environmental controls across a service provider’s care estate based on real-time data feeds from sensors deployed in those settings .

iot:TCom="7"

Involves multiple ecosystems and a high degree of automation

As for TCom 6, but involving both multiple ecosystems and a high degree of automation. Examples: A smart city solution drawing data from multiple providers and sources, which is then used for automated traffic control and routing of emergency services, or the automated adjustment of traffic lights based on real-time mobile phone location data

SSL

A second characteristic of an IoT system concerns the inherent level of safety, privacy and security of that system. At one end of the spectrum, an IoT system may not gather data that is sensitive either in terms of safety or privacy, while at the other it may collect data about identifiable individuals or groups of individuals, involve financial transactions, or access to system data or have the ability to control objects that could compromise health, safety or security.

iot:SSL="0"

No data involved

No data involved, no control of the system

iot:SSL="1"

No sensitive data involved

No sensitive data involved, no control of the objects in the system. Example: Wireless doorbell

iot:SSL="2"

Anonymous or aggregated data

System provides anonymous, aggregated statistics, no control of the system. Example: Remote temperature sensors

iot:SSL="3"

Sensitive data

System generates sensitive data or supports some degree of remote control of the system objects. Examples: Biometric data, door actuation mechanisms

iot:SSL="4"

Connects with external systems

System generates sensitive data, supports some degree of remote control of the system objects and connects with external systems. Examples: Integrated facilities management systems, tele-health monitoring, security and safety systems

DSL

A third characteristic of IoT systems concerns the degree of sharing of sensitive data between the object and the system, and subsequently between the system and the system operator(s) or participants, and third parties. Systems do not always need to share data, so IoT product, platform, service and system designers must be clear about when data is shared, what is shared and why.

Exclusive flag set which means the values or predicate below must be set exclusively.

iot:DSL="0"

No data shared

No data is shared. Examples: Simple point-to-point monitoring systems such as consumer weather stations and wireless doorbells

iot:DSL="1"

Sharing between two parties

Basic sharing between two parties: agreed sharing of sensitive data between the customer/buyer/user and the seller or provider (whether that seller or provider operates in the commercial or public sector). Examples: Cloud-based security systems, remote cameras, home monitoring systems

iot:DSL="2"

Third-party sharing

Third person sharing: sharing of sensitive data between the seller or provider and unrelated third parties in a commercial context. Examples: Person tracking information to support targeted marketing offers

iot:DSL="3"

Multi-domain sharing

Multi-domain and third-party sharing: sharing of sensitive data between the customer/buyer/user and multiple sellers or providers involved in delivering services, where those providers come from different ecosystems (including the commercial and public sectors). Examples: The aggregation of parking, traffic and environmental data in an urban traffic management application

iot:DSL="4"

Open access to sensitive data

Open access to sensitive data, including data generated through use of public finance or infrastructure. Examples: Integration of multiple security systems in a public safety context

kill-chain

kill-chain namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

The Cyber Kill Chain, a phase-based model developed by Lockheed Martin, aims to help categorise and identify the stage of an attack.

Reconnaissance

kill-chain:Reconnaissance

Research, identification and selection of targets, often represented as crawling Internet websites such as conference proceedings and mailing lists for email addresses, social relationships, or information on specific technologies.

Weaponization

kill-chain:Weaponization

Coupling a remote access trojan with an exploit into a deliverable payload, typically by means of an automated tool (weaponizer). Increasingly, client application data files such as Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) or Microsoft Office documents serve as the weaponized deliverable.

Delivery

kill-chain:Delivery

Transmission of the weapon to the targeted environment. The three most prevalent delivery vectors for weaponized payloads by APT actors, as observed by the Lockheed Martin Computer Incident Response Team (LM-CIRT) for the years 2004-2010, are email attachments, websites, and USB removable media.

Exploitation

kill-chain:Exploitation

After the weapon is delivered to victim host, exploitation triggers intruders' code. Most often, exploitation targets an application or operating system vulnerability, but it could also more simply exploit the users themselves or leverage an operating system feature that auto-executes code.

Installation

kill-chain:Installation

Installation of a remote access trojan or backdoor on the victim system allows the adversary to maintain persistence inside the environment.

Command and Control

kill-chain:Command and Control

Typically, compromised hosts must beacon outbound to an Internet controller server to establish a C2 channel. APT malware especially requires manual interaction rather than conduct activity automatically. Once the C2 channel establishes, intruders have 'hands on the keyboard' access inside the target environment.

Actions on Objectives

kill-chain:Actions on Objectives

Only now, after progressing through the first six phases, can intruders take actions to achieve their original objectives. Typically, this objective is data exfiltration which involves collecting, encrypting and extracting information from the victim environment; violations of data integrity or availability are potential objectives as well. Alternatively, the intruders may only desire access to the initial victim box for use as a hop point to compromise additional systems and move laterally inside the network.

Penetration test (pentest) classification.

approach

This is group is dealing with differents types of pentest

pentest:approach="blackbox"

Blackbox penetration test requires no prior information about the target network or application and is actually performed keeping it as a real world hacker attack scenario. (https://www.evolution-sec.com/en/products/blackbox-penetration-testing)

pentest:approach="greybox"

Gray box testing lies between black and white. Testers will have knowledge of some areas but not others. These areas are defined at the start of an engagement.(https://www.intelisecure.com/security-assessments-pen-testing/approaches/)

pentest:approach="whitebox"

White box, or authenticated tests, target the security of your underlying technology with full knowledge of your IT department. Information typically shared with the tester includes: network diagrams, IP addresses, system configurations and access credentials.(https://www.intelisecure.com/security-assessments-pen-testing/approaches/)

pentest:approach="vulnerability_scanning"

Vulnerability scanning is a security technique used to identify security weaknesses in a computer system. (https://www.techopedia.com/definition/4160/vulnerability-scanning)

pentest:approach="redteam"

A red team is an group that challenges an organization to improve its effectiveness by assuming an adversarial role or point of view without any predefined scope. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_team)

scan

Automated tool that perform network checks

pentest:scan="vertical"

A scan against multiple ports of a single IP.

pentest:scan="horizontal"

A scan against a group of IPs for a single port.

pentest:scan="network_scan"

It is the discovery of networks and machines with services.

pentest:scan="vulnerability"

Vulnerability scanning is a security technique used to identify security weaknesses in a computer system. (https://www.techopedia.com/definition/4160/vulnerability-scanning)

exploit

Exploitation of a vulnerability

pentest:exploit="type confusion"

When a piece of code doesn’t verify the type of object that is passed to it, and uses it blindly without type-checking, it leads to type confusion. (https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2015/06/17/understanding-type-confusion-vulnerabilities-cve-2015-0336/)

pentest:exploit="format_strings"

The format string exploit occurs when the submitted data of an input string leads to arbitrary read or write in the memory. In this way, the attacker could execute code, read the stack, or cause a segmentation fault in the running application, causing new behaviors that could compromise the security or the stability of the system. (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Format_string_attack)

pentest:exploit="stack_overflow"

In software, a stack overflow is type of buffer overflow that occurs if the call stack pointer exceeds the stack bound. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_overflow)

pentest:exploit="heap_overflow"

A heap overflow is a type of buffer overflow that occurs in the heap data area. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_overflow)

pentest:exploit="heap_spraying"

Heap spraying is a technique used in exploits to facilitate arbitrary code execution. In general, code that sprays the heap attempts to put a certain sequence of bytes at a predetermined location in the memory of a target process by having it allocate (large) blocks on the process’s heap and fill the bytes in these blocks with the right values. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_spraying)

pentest:exploit="fuzzing"

Fuzzing is an automated software testing technique that involves providing invalid, unexpected, or random data as inputs to a computer program. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzing)

pentest:exploit="ROP"

The Return-Oriented Programming (ROP) is a computer security exploit technique in which the attacker uses control of the call stack to indirectly execute cherry-picked machine instructions or groups of machine instructions immediately prior to the return instruction in subroutines within the existing program code, in a way similar to the execution of a threaded code interpreter. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return-oriented_programming)

pentest:exploit="null_pointer_dereference"

A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit. (https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/476.html)

post_exploitation

Utilizing post exploitation techniques will ensure that a penetration tester maintains some level of access and can potentially lead to deeper footholds into the targets trusted infrastructure. (https://www.offensive-security.com/metasploit-unleashed/msf-post-exploitation/)

pentest:post_exploitation="privilege_escalation"

Privilege escalation is the act of exploiting a bug, design flaw or configuration oversight in an operating system or software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privilege_escalation)

pentest:post_exploitation="pivoting"

Pivoting refers to a method used by penetration testers that uses the compromised system to attack other systems on the same network to avoid restrictions such as firewall configurations, which may prohibit direct access to all machines. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploit_(computer_security)#Pivoting)

pentest:post_exploitation="password_cracking"

Password cracking is the process of recovering passwords from data that have been stored in or transmitted by a computer system. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_cracking)

pentest:post_exploitation="persistence"

The persistence is when a penetration tester let him a way to keep its exploitation on a machine or a domain even if the system is rebooted.

pentest:post_exploitation="data_exfiltration"

After an exploitation of a machine, a penetration tester will try to exfiltrate sensitive data.

web

This is group is dealing with web vulnerabilities

pentest:web="injection"

Code injection is the exploitation of a computer bug that is caused by processing invalid data. Injection is used by an attacker to introduce (or "inject") code into a vulnerable computer program and change the course of execution. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_injection)

pentest:web="SQLi"

An SQL injection is a computer attack in which malicious code is embedded in a poorly-designed application and then passed to the SQL backend database. The malicious data then produces database query results or actions that should never have been executed.(https://www.techopedia.com/definition/4126/sql-injection)

pentest:web="NoSQLi"

An NoSQL injection is a computer attack in which malicious code is embedded in a poorly-designed application and then passed to the NoSQL backend database. The malicious data then produces database query results or actions that should never have been executed.

pentest:web="XML injection"

XML Injection is an attack technique used to manipulate or compromise the logic of an XML application or service. The injection of unintended XML content and/or structures into an XML message can alter the intend logic of the application. Further, XML injection can cause the insertion of malicious content into the resulting message/document.(http://projects.webappsec.org/w/page/13247004/XML%20Injection)

pentest:web="CSRF"

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is an attack that forces an end user to execute unwanted actions on a web application in which they’re currently authenticated. CSRF attacks specifically target state-changing requests, not theft of data, since the attacker has no way to see the response to the forged request.(https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_(CSRF))

pentest:web="SSRF"

Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) refers to an attack where in an attacker is able to send a crafted request from a vulnerable web application. SSRF is usually used to target internal systems behind firewalls that are normally inaccessible to an attacker from the external network. (https://www.acunetix.com/blog/articles/server-side-request-forgery-vulnerability/)

pentest:web="XSS"

Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a security breach that takes advantage of dynamically generated Web pages. In an XSS attack, a Web application is sent with a script that activates when it is read by an unsuspecting user’s browser or by an application that has not protected itself against cross-site scripting. (https://www.webopedia.com/TERM/X/XSS.html)

pentest:web="file_inclusion"

The File Inclusion vulnerability allows an attacker to include a file, usually exploiting a "dynamic file inclusion" mechanisms implemented in the target application. The vulnerability occurs due to the use of user-supplied input without proper validation. (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Testing_for_Local_File_Inclusion)

pentest:web="web_tree_discovery"

A web tree discovery is a brute force directories and files names on web/application server

pentest:web="bruteforce"

A brute-force attack consists of an attacker trying many passwords or passphrases with the hope of eventually guessing correctly. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brute-force_attack)

pentest:web="fuzzing"

Fuzzing is an automated software testing technique that involves providing invalid, unexpected, or random data as inputs to a computer program. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzing)

network

This is group is dealing with network vulnerabilities

pentest:network="sniffing"

Sniffing involves capturing, decoding, inspecting and interpreting the information inside a network packet on a TCP/IP network. (http://www.valencynetworks.com/articles/cyber-security-attacks-network-sniffing.html)

pentest:network="spoofing"

Spoofing, in general, is a fraudulent or malicious practice in which communication is sent from an unknown source disguised as a source known to the receiver. Spoofing is most prevalent in communication mechanisms that lack a high level of security. (https://www.techopedia.com/definition/5398/spoofing)

pentest:network="man_in_the_middle"

man-in-the-middle attack (MITM) is an attack where the attacker secretly relays and possibly alters the communication between two parties who believe they are directly communicating with each other. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack)

pentest:network="network_discovery"

It is the discovery of networks and machines with services.

social_engineering

Social engineering is an attack vector that relies heavily on human interaction and often involves tricking people into breaking normal security procedures. (https://krashconsulting.com/index.php/services/sea/)

pentest:social_engineering="phishing"

Phishing is the attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details (and money), often for malicious reasons, by disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing)

pentest:social_engineering="malware"

Malware, short for malicious software, is an umbrella term used to refer to a variety of forms of harmful or intrusive software, including computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, ransomware, spyware, adware, scareware, and other malicious programs. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malware)

People prefer to abide to whom (they think) they know or like, or to whom they are similar to or familiar with, as well as attracted to.

phishing:principle-of-persuasion="commitment-reciprocation-consistency"

People feel more confident in their decision once they commit (publically) to a specific action and need to follow it through until the end. This is true whether in the workplace, or in a situation when their action is illegal. People have tendency to believe what others say and need, and they want to appear consistent in what they do, for instance, when they owe a favour. There is an automatic response of repaying a favour.

phishing:principle-of-persuasion="distraction"

People focus on one thing and ignore other things that may happen without them noticing; they focus attention on what they can gain, what they need, what they can lose or miss out on, or if that thing will soon be unavailable, has been censored, restricted or will be more expensive later. These distractions can heighten people’s emotional state and make them forget other logical facts to consider when making decisions.

priority-level

ransomware

ransomware namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

Ransomware is used to define ransomware types and the elements that compose them.

type

Type is used to describe the type of a ransomware and how it works.

ransomware:type="scareware"

Scareware is a form of malware which uses social engineering to cause shock, anxiety, or the perception of a threat in order to manipulate users into buying unwanted software.

ransomware:type="locker-ransomware"

Locker ransomware, also called screen locker, denies access to the browser, computer or device.

ransomware:type="crypto-ransomware"

Crypto ransomware, also called data locker or cryptoware, prevents access to files or data. Crypto ransomware doesn’t necessarily have to use encryption to stop users from accessing their data, but the vast majority of it does.

element

Elements that composed or are linked to a ransomware and its execution.

ransomware:element="ransomnote"

A ransomnote is the message left by the attacker to threaten their victim and ask for a ransom. It is usually seen as a text or HTML file, or a picture set as background.

ransomware:element="ransomware-appended-extension"

This is the extension added by the ransomware to the files.

ransomware:element="ransomware-encrypted-extensions"

This is the list of extensions that will be encrypted by the ransomware. Beware to keep the order.

ransomware:element="ransomware-excluded-extensions"

This is the list of extensions that will not be encrypted by the ransomware. Beware to keep the order.

ransomware:element="dropper"

A dropper is a means of getting malware into a machine while bypassing the security checks, often by containing the malware inside of itself.

ransomware:element="downloader"

A downloader is a means of getting malware into a machine while bypassing the security checks, by downloading it instead of containing it.

complexity-level

Level of complexity of the ransomware.

ransomware:complexity-level="no-actual-encryption-scareware"

No actual encryption (scareware). Infection merely poses as a ransomware by displaying a ransom note or message while not actually encrypting user files.

ransomware:complexity-level="display-ransomnote-before-encrypting"

Displaying the ransom note before the encryption process commences. As seen in the case of Nemucod, some ransomware will display a ransom note before file encryption. This is a serious operational flaw in the ransomware. The victim or their antivirus solution could effectively take prompt evasive action to prevent ransomware from commencing encryption.

ransomware:complexity-level="decryption-essentials-extracted-from-binary"

Decryption essentials can be reverse engineered from ransomware code or the user’s system. For example, if the ransomware uses a hard-coded key, then it becomes straight-forward for malware analysts to extract the key by reverse engineering the ransomware binary.

ransomware:complexity-level="derived-encryption-key-predicted "

Another possibility of reverse engineering the key is demonstrated in the case of Linux.Encoder, a type of ransomware where a timestamp on the system was used to create keys for encryption resulting in easy decryption provided that the timestamp is still accessible.

ransomware:complexity-level="same-key used-for-each-infection"

Ransomware uses the same key for every victim. If the same key is used to encrypt all victims during a campaign, then one victim can share the secret key with others.

ransomware:complexity-level="encryption-circumvented"

Decryption possible without key - files can be decrypted without the need for a key due to poor choice or implementation of the encryption algorithm. Consider the case of desuCrypt that used an RC4 stream cipher for encryption. Using a stream cipher with key reuse is vulnerable to known plaintext attacks and known ciphertext attacks due to key reuse and hence this is a poor implementation of an encryption algorithm.

ransomware:complexity-level="file-restoration-possible-using-shadow-volume-copies"

Files can be restored using Shadow Volume Copies (“Previous Versions”) on the New Technology File System (NTFS), that were neglected to be deleted by the ransomware.

ransomware:complexity-level="file-restoration-possible-using-backups"

Files can be restored using a System State backup, System Image backup or other means of backup mechanisms (such as third-party backup software) that will render the ransomware’s extortion attempt unsuccessful.

ransomware:complexity-level="key-recovered-from-file-system-or-memory"

Decryption key can be retrieved from the host machine’s file structure or memory by an average user without the need for an expert. In the case of CryptoDefense, the ransomware did not securely delete keys from the host machine. The user can examine the right file or folder to discover the decryption key.

ransomware:complexity-level="due-diligence-prevented-ransomware-from-acquiring-key"

User can prevent ransomware from acquiring the encryption key. Ransomware belongs in this category if its encryption procedure can be interrupted or blocked by due diligence on part of the user. For example, CryptoLocker discussed above cannot commence operation until it receives a key from the C&C server. A host or border firewall can block a list of known C&C servers hence rendering ransomware ineffective.

ransomware:complexity-level="click-and-run-decryptor-exists"

Easy “Click-and-run” solutions such as a decryptor has been created by the security community such that a user can simply run the program to decrypt all files.

ransomware:complexity-level="kill-switch-exists-outside-of-attacker-s-control"

There exists a kill switch outside of an attacker’s control that renders the cryptoviral infection ineffective. For example, in the case of WannaCry, a global kill switch existed in the form of a domain name. The ransomware reached out to this domain before commencing encryption and if the domain existed, the ransomware aborted execution. This kill switch was outside the attacker’s control as anyone could register it and neutralize the ransomware outbreak.

ransomware:complexity-level="decryption-key-recovered-from-a-C&C-server-or-network-communications"

Key can be retrieved from a central location such as a C&C server on a compromised host or gleaned with some difficulty from communication between ransomware on the host and the C&C server. For instance, in the case of CryptoLocker, authorities were able to seize a network of compromised hosts used to spread CryptoLocker and gain access to decryption essentials of around 500,000 victims.

ransomware:complexity-level="custom-encryption-algorithm-used"

Ransomware uses custom encryption techniques and violates the fundamental rule of cryptography: “do not roll your own crypto.” It is tempting to design a custom cipher that one cannot break themselves, however it will likely not withstand the scrutiny of professional cryptanalysts. Amateur custom cryptography in the ransomware implies there will likely soon be a solution to decrypt files without paying the ransom. An example of this is an early variant of the GPCode ransomware that emerged in 2005 with weak custom encryption.

ransomware:complexity-level="decryption-key-recovered-under-specialized-lab-setting"

Key can only be retrieved under rare, specialized laboratory settings. For example, in the case of WannaCry, a vulnerability in a cryptographic API on an unpatched Windows XP system allowed users to acquire from RAM the prime numbers used to compute private keys and hence retrieve the decryption key. However, the victim had to have been running a specific version of Windows XP and be fortunate enough that the related address space in memory has not been reallocated to another process. In another example, it is theoretically possible to reverse WannaCry encryption by exploiting a flaw in the pseudo-random-number-generator (PRNG) in an unpatched Windows XP system that reveals keys generated in the past. Naturally, these specialized conditions are not true for most victims.

ransomware:complexity-level="small-subset-of-files-left-unencrypted"

A small subset of files left unencrypted by the ransomware for any number of reasons. Certain ransomware are known to only encrypt a file if its size exceeds a predetermined value. In addition, ransomware might decrypt a few files for free to prove decryption is possible. In such cases, a small number of victims may be lucky enough to only need these unencrypted files and can tolerate loss of the rest.

ransomware:complexity-level="encryption-model-is-seemingly-flawless"

Encryption model is resistant to cryptographic attacks and has been implemented seemingly flawlessly such that there are no known vulnerabilities in its execution. Simply put, there is no proven way yet to decrypt the files without paying the ransom.

purpose

Purpose of the ransomware.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-as-ransomware-extortion"

This has been the traditional approach - ransomware is installed on the victim’s machine, and its only purpose is to create income for the cybercriminal(s). In fact, ransomware is simple extortion, but via digital means.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-to-showcase-skills-for-fun-or-for-testing-purposes"

Some cybercriminals like to show off, and as such create the side-business of ransomware, or, more particularly to showcase their coding skills. Another example may be to send ransomware 'as a joke' or for fun to your friends, and giving them a bad time. Some cybercriminals may be testing the waters by deploying ransomware in an organisation, to stress-test the defenses, or to test their own programming skills, or the lack thereof.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-as-smokescreen"

A very interesting occurrence indeed: ransomware is installed to hide the real purpose of whatever the cybercriminal or attacker is doing. This may be data exfiltration, lateral movement, or anything else, in theory, everything is a possible scenario… except for the ransomware itself.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-to-cause-frustration"

Another possible angle that goes hand in hand with the classic extortion scheme - deploying ransomware with intent of frustrating the victim. Basically, cyber bullying. While there may be a request for a monetary amount, it is not the purpose.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-out-of-frustration"

Sometimes, an attacker may gain initial access to a server or other machine, but consequent attempts to, for example, exfiltrate data or attack other machine, is unsuccessful. This may be due to a number of things, but often due to the access being discovered, and quickly patched. On the other hand, it may have not been discovered yet, but the attacker is sitting with the same problem: the purpose is not fulfilled. Then, out of frustration, or to gain at least something out of the victim, the machine gets trashed with ransomware. Another possibility is a disgruntled employee, leaving ransomware as a 'present' before leaving the company.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-as-a-cover-up"

This may sound ambiguous at first, but imagine a scenario where a company may face sanctions, is already compromised, or has a running investigation. The company or organisation deploying ransomware itself, is a viable way of destroying data forever, and any evidence may be lost. Another possibility is, in order to cover up a much larger compromise, ransomware is installed, and everything is formatted to hide what actually happened. Again, there is also the possibility of a disgruntled employee, or even an intruder: which brings us back to 'deployed as a smokescreen'.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-as-a-penetration-test-or-user-awareness-training"

Ransomware is very effective in the sense that most people know what its purpose is, and the dangers it may cause. As such, it is an excellent tool that can be used for demonstration purposes, such as a user awareness training. Another possibility is an external pentest, with same purpose.

ransomware:purpose="deployed-as-a-means-of-disruption-destruction"

Last but not least - while ransomware can have several purposes, it can also serve a particularly nasty goal: destroy a company or organisation, or at least take them offline for several days, or even weeks. Again, there are some possibilities, but this may be a rivalry company in a similar business, again a disgruntled employee, or to disrupt large organisations on a worldwide scale.

target

infection

Infection vector used by the ransomware.

ransomware:infection="phishing-e=mails"

Malicious e-mails are the most commonly used infection vectors for ransomware. Attackers send spam e-mails to victims that have attachments containing ransomware. Such spam campaigns can be distributed using botnets. Ransomware may come with an attached malicious file, or the e-mail may contain a malicious link that will trigger the installation of ransomware once visited (drive-by download).

ransomware:infection="sms-instant-message"

SMS Messages or IMs are used frequently for mobile ransomware. In such kind of infections, attackers send SMS messages or IMs to the victims that will cause them to browse a malicious website to download ransomware to their platforms.

ransomware:infection="malicious-apps"

Malicious Applications are used by ransomware attackers who develop and deploy mobile applications that contain ransomware camouflaged as a benign application.

ransomware:infection="drive-by-download"

ransomware:infection="vulnerabilities"

Vulnerabilities in the victim platform such as vulnerabilities in operating systems, browsers, or software can be used by ransomware authors as infection vectors. Attackers can use helper applications, exploit kits, to exploit the known or zero-day vulnerabilities in target systems. Attackers can redirect victims to those kits via malvertisement and malicious links.

targeted-threat-index

targeted-threat-index namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

The Targeted Threat Index is a metric for assigning an overall threat ranking score to email messages that deliver malware to a victim’s computer. The TTI metric was first introduced at SecTor 2013 by Seth Hardy as part of the talk “RATastrophe: Monitoring a Malware Menagerie” along with Katie Kleemola and Greg Wiseman.

targeting-sophistication-base-value

The base value of the score ranges from 0 to 5, based on the sophistication of the email’s social engineering techniques used to get the victim to open the attachment. This score considers the content and presentation of the message as well as the claimed sender identity. This determination also includes the content of any associated files; many times malware is injected into legitimate relevant documents.

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="not-targeted"

Not targeted, e.g. spam or financially motivated malware.

Associated numerical value="1"

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="targeted-but-not-customized"

Targeted but not customized. Sent with a message that is obviously false with little to no validation required.

Associated numerical value="25"

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="targeted-and-poorly-customized"

Targeted and poorly customized. Content is generally relevant to the target. May look questionable.

Associated numerical value="50"

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="targeted-and-customized"

Targeted and customized. May use a real person/organization or content to convince the target the message is legitimate. Content is specifically relevant to the target and looks legitimate.

Associated numerical value="65"

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="targeted-and-well-customized"

Targeted and well-customized. Uses a real person/organization and content to convince the target the message is legitimate. Probably directly addressing the recipient. Content is specifically relevant to the target, looks legitimate, and can be externally referenced (e.g. by a website). May be sent from a hacked account.

Associated numerical value="85"

targeted-threat-index:targeting-sophistication-base-value="targeted-and-highly-customized-using-sensitive-data"

Targeted and highly customized using sensitive data. Individually targeted and customized, likely using inside/sensitive information that is directly relevant to the target.

Associated numerical value="100"

technical-sophistication-multiplier

The technical sophistication score is a multiplier ranging from 1 to 2 based on how advanced the associated malware is, including malicious file attachments as well as links to malware hosted on another system. We use a multiplier because advanced malware requires significantly more effort and time (or money, in the case of commercial solutions) to custom-tune for a particular target.

targeted-threat-index:technical-sophistication-multiplier="the-sample-contains-no code-protection"

The sample contains no code protection such as packing, obfuscation (e.g. simple rotation of C2 names or other interesting strings), or anti-reversing tricks.

Associated numerical value="1"

targeted-threat-index:technical-sophistication-multiplier="the-sample-contains-a-simple-method-of-protection"

The sample contains a simple method of protection, such as one of the following: code protection using publicly available tools where the reverse method is available, such as UPX packing; simple anti-reversing techniques such as not using import tables, or a call to IsDebuggerPresent(); self-disabling in the presence of AV software.

Associated numerical value="25"

targeted-threat-index:technical-sophistication-multiplier="the-sample-contains-multiple-minor-code-protection-techniques"

The sample contains multiple minor code protection techniques (anti-reversing tricks, packing, VM / reversing tools detection) that require some low-level knowledge. This level includes malware where code that contains the core functionality of the program is decrypted only in memory.

Associated numerical value="50"

targeted-threat-index:technical-sophistication-multiplier="the-sample-contains-minor-code-protection-techniques-plus-one-advanced"

The sample contains minor code protection techniques along with at least one advanced protection method such as rootkit functionality or a custom virtualized packer.

Associated numerical value="75"

targeted-threat-index:technical-sophistication-multiplier="the-sample-contains-multiple-advanced-protection-techniques"

The sample contains multiple advanced protection techniques, e.g. rootkit capability, virtualized packer, multiple anti-reversing techniques, and is clearly designed by a professional software engineering team.

Associated numerical value="100"

tlp

tlp namespace available in JSON format at this location. The JSON format can be freely reused in your application or automatically enabled in MISP taxonomy.

The Traffic Light Protocol - or short: TLP - was designed with the objective to create a favorable classification scheme for sharing sensitive information while keeping the control over its distribution at the same time.

Exclusive flag set which means the values or predicate below must be set exclusively.

red

Not for disclosure, restricted to participants only. Sources may use TLP:RED when information cannot be effectively acted upon by additional parties, and could lead to impacts on a party’s privacy, reputation, or operations if misused. Recipients may not share TLP:RED information with any parties outside of the specific exchange, meeting, or conversation in which it was originally disclosed. In the context of a meeting, for example, TLP:RED information is limited to those present at the meeting. In most circumstances, TLP:RED should be exchanged verbally or in person.

tlp:red

(TLP:RED) Information exclusively and directly given to (a group of) individual recipients. Sharing outside is not legitimate.

amber

Limited disclosure, restricted to participants’ organizations. Sources may use TLP:AMBER when information requires support to be effectively acted upon, yet carries risks to privacy, reputation, or operations if shared outside of the organizations involved. Recipients may only share TLP:AMBER information with members of their own organization, and with clients or customers who need to know the information to protect themselves or prevent further harm. Sources are at liberty to specify additional intended limits of the sharing: these must be adhered to.

tlp:amber

(TLP:AMBER) Information exclusively given to an organization; sharing limited within the organization to be effectively acted upon.

green

Limited disclosure, restricted to the community. Sources may use TLP:GREEN when information is useful for the awareness of all participating organizations as well as with peers within the broader community or sector. Recipients may share TLP:GREEN information with peers and partner organizations within their sector or community, but not via publicly accessible channels. Information in this category can be circulated widely within a particular community. TLP:GREEN information may not be released outside of the community.

tlp:green

(TLP:GREEN) Information given to a community or a group of organizations at large. The information cannot be publicly released.

white

Disclosure is not limited. Sources may use TLP:WHITE when information carries minimal or no foreseeable risk of misuse, in accordance with applicable rules and procedures for public release. Subject to standard copyright rules, TLP:WHITE information may be distributed without restriction.

tlp:white

(TLP:WHITE) Information can be shared publicly in accordance with the law.

ex:chr

tlp:ex:chr

(TLP:EX:CHR) Information extended with a specific tag called Chatham House Rule (CHR). When this specific CHR tag is mentioned, the attribution (the source of information) must not be disclosed. This additional rule is at the discretion of the initial sender who can decide to apply or not the CHR tag.

Draft means the information tagged can be released as a preliminary version or outline

workflow:state="ongoing"

Analyst is currently working on this analysis. To remove when there is no more work to be done by the analyst.

Mapping of taxonomies

Analysts relying on taxonomies don’t always know the appropriate namespace to use but know which value to use for classification. The MISP mapping taxonomy allows to map a single classification into a series of machine-tag synonyms.
