<h2>Structured Threat Information eXpression (STIX) and Trusted Automated eXchange of Intelligence Information (TAXII)</h2>
<p>The old adage of “sharing is caring” is paramount within the cyber threat intelligence community. Quick and in-depth transfer of knowledge between individuals, organizations, products, and platforms can lead to improved prevention and mitigation of cyber-attacks. There are many sources of information possible for acquiring such knowledge, but sharing opens many questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>How best to share this information and what should the information look like?</li>
<li>What structure will ensure that it is quickly and efficiently parsed?</li>
<li>How can you guarantee that the information you share is detailed and accurate?</li>
</ul>
<p>Cyber threat sharing protocols called Structured Threat Information eXpression (STIX) and Trusted Automated eXchange of Intelligence Information (TAXII) have been developed in response to these questions. The establishment of STIX/TAXII is an open, community-driven effort that provides free specifications to aid in the automated expression of cyber threat information.</p>
