1. Introduction
[RFC7970] defines a data representation for security incident reports
and indicators commonly exchanged by operational security teams. It
facilitates the automated exchange of this information to enable
mitigation and watch-and-warning. Section 3 of [RFC7970] defined an
information model using Unified Modeling Language (UML) and a
corresponding Extensible Markup Language (XML) schema data model in
Section 8. This UML-based information model and XML-based data model
are referred to as IODEF UML and IODEF XML, respectively in this
document.
This document defines an alternate implementation of the IODEF UML
information model by specifying a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)
data model using JSON Schema [jsonschema]. This JSON data model is
referred to as IODEF JSON in this document.
IODEF JSON provides all of the expressivity of IODEF XML. It gives
implementers and operators an alternative format to exchange the same
information.

Internet-Draft JSON-IODEF July 2018
The normative IODEF JSON data model is found in Section 5. Section 2
and Section 3 describe the data types and elements of this data
model. Section 4 provides examples.
1.1. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
2. IODEF Data Types
The abstract IODEF JSON implements the abstract data types specified
in Section 2 of [RFC7970].
2.1. Abstract Data Type to JSON Data Type Mapping
IODEF JSON uses native and derived JSON data types. Figure 1
describes the mapping between the abstract data types in Section 2 of
[RFC7970] and their corresponding implementations in IODEF JSON.

2.2. Complex JSON Types
2.2.1. Multilingual Strings
A string that needs to be represented in a human-readable language
different than the default encoding of the document is represented in
the information model by the ML_STRING data type. This data type is
implemented as an object with "value", "lang", and "translation-id"
elements as defined in Section 5. Examples are shown below.
"MLStringType": {
"value": "free-form text", //STRING
"lang": "en", //ENUM
"translation-id": "jp2en0023" //STRING
}

Internet-Draft JSON-IODEF July 2018
2.2.2. Software and SoftwareReference
A particular version of software is represented in the information
model by the SOFTWARE data type. This software can be described by
using a reference, a URL, or with free-form text. The SOFTWARE data
type is implemented as an object with "SoftwareReference", "URL",
"Description", and "Description_ML" elements as defined in Section 5.
Examples are shown below.
"SoftwareType": {
"SoftwareReference": {...}, //SoftwareReference
"Description": ["MS Windows"] //STRING
}
SoftwareReference class is a reference to a particular version of
software. Examples are shown below.
"SoftwareReference": {
"value": "cpe:/a:google:chrome:59.0.3071.115 ", //STRING
"spec-name": "cpe", //ENUM
"dtype": "string", //ENUM
}
2.2.3. StructuredInfo
Information provided in a form of structured string, such as ID, or
structured information, such as XML documents, is represented in the
information model by the StructuredInfo data type. Note that this
type was originally specified in RFC7203. The StructuredInfo data
type is implemented as an object with "SpecID", "ext-SpecID",
"ContentID", "RawData", "Reference" elements. An example for
embedding a structured ID is shown below.
"StructuredInformation": {
"SpecID": "cve", //ENUM
"ContentID": "CVE-2007-5000" //STRING
}
When embedding the raw data, base64 conversion should be used for
encoding the data, as shown below.
"StructuredInformation": {
"SpecID": "oval", //ENUM
"RawData": "<<<strings encoded with base64>>>" //BYTE
}

Internet-Draft JSON-IODEF July 2018
2.2.4. EXTENSION
Information not otherwise represented in the IODEF can be added using
the EXTENSION data type. This data type is a generic extension
mechanism. The EXTENSION data type is implemented as an
ExtensionType object with "value", "name", "dtype", "ext-dtype",
"meaning", "formatid", "restriction", "ext-restriction", and
"observable-id" elements. An example for embedding a structured ID
is shown below.
"ExtensionType": {
"value": "xxxxxxx", //String
"name": "Syslog", //String
"dtype": "string", //String
"meaning": "Syslog from the security appliance X", //String
}

3.2. Mapping between JSON and XML IODEF
o This document treats attributes and elements of each class defined
in [RFC7970] equally and is agnostic on the order of their
appearances.
o Flow class is deleted, and classes with its instances now directly
have instances of EventData class that used to belong to the Flow
classs.
Takahashi, et al. Expires January 18, 2019 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft JSON-IODEF July 2018
o ApplicationHeader class is deleted, and classes with its instances
now directly have instances of ApplicationHeaderField class that
used to belong to the ApplicationHeader class.
o SignatureData class is deleted, and classes with its instances now
directly have instance of Signature class that used to belong to
the SignatureData class.
o IndicatorData class is deleted, and classes with its instances now
directly have the instances of Indicator class that used to belong
to the IndicatorData class.
o ObservableReference class is deleted, and classes with its
instances now directly have uid-ref as an element.
o Record class is replaced by RecordData class, and RecordData class
is renamed to Record class.
o Record class is deleted, and classes with its instances now
directly have the instances of RecordData class that used to
belong to the Record class.
o The elements of ML_STRING type are prepared as two separate
elements: one of STRING type and another of ML_STRING type, in
order to maintain the simplicity of IODEF documents when writing
with only STRING type characters.
4. Examples
This section provides example of IODEF documents. These examples do
not represent the full capabilities of the data model or the the only
way to encode particular information.
4.1. Minimal Example
A document containing only the mandatory elements and attributes.
