The Trusted Automated eXchange of Indicator Information (TAXII trademark)

Abstract

Throughout the history of computing and cyber security, the sophistication, speed, and impact of cyber attacks has grown. Today, nuisance-motivated virus outbreaks and internet worms have given way to skillful, persistent adversaries seeking specific information, such as online banking credentials, intellectual property, or national security information. Other nefarious objectives, such as information deception, disruption, and destruction, may also be sought by this new breed of threat actor. Cyber defense strategies must adapt to these new actors and attacks.
