Define Marking Definition

Define marking definitions to handle and share the requirements for the data.

Before you begin

Role required: sn_sec_tisc.analyst

Procedure

1. Navigate to Workspaces > Threat Intelligence Security Center.
2. Click on Threat Intel Library icon on the workspace.
3. Go to Marking Definition object.
4. Select New.
   Note:

   Whenever you create new object records for observables, indicators, entities or objects a source record is created and a prompt message is displayed that the new object record is created and then the user is redirected to the aggregated record.
5. On the form, fill in the fields.

   Table 1. Marking Definition Source Details view

   Field	Description
   ID	Unique ID to identify a Marking Definition.
   Name	A name used to identify the Marking Definition.
   Definition Type	The type property identifies the type of object. The definition_type property identifies the type of Marking Definition.
   Definition	The definition property contains the marking object itself, for example TLP.
   TLP	TLP is used to ensure that sensitive information is shared with the appropriate audience. It employs four colors (White, Green, Amber, Red, Amber+Strict) to indicate different degrees of sensitivity.
   Confidence	Enter the confidence for this object. The confidence property identifies the confidence that the creator has in the correctness of their data. The confidence value MUST be a number in the range of 0-100.

   Table 2. Insights

   Field	Description
   Notes	Add any additional notes for this Marking Definition.

   Table 3. Additional Information

   Field	Description
   Additional Context	Add any additional context for this Marking Definition.
   Spec Version	The version of the STIX specification used to represent this object. The value of this property must be 2.1 for STIX Objects defined according to this specification.
   Lang	This property identifies the language of the text content in this object.
   Created Time In Source	Specifies the time the object is created in the source.
   Extensions	Indicates the extensions of attack pattern.
   Modified Time in Source	Specifies the time the object is modified in the source.
   Processing Status	Represents the processing status of this object, course of action.
   Created	Specifies the date and time when the object is created in the source.
   Updated	Specifies the date and time when the object was updated in the source.
   Created By Ref	This property specifies that the identity object that describes the entity had created this object.

6. If you want to delete any record then, select Delete to delete the aggregated record.

   When you select this action, then it will remove all the related records, except the original source data, and trigger re aggregation.

   Note:

   A confirmation message will appear to verify that you want to delete the aggregated record. If you also want to delete the source records and prevent re aggregation, select the Delete Source Records check box. This action will remove all the associated source records.
7. Click Save.
   After you save, a prompt message is displayed indicating that A new observable record is created. Click Continue to edit the record and create new relationships.
8. Click Continue.
   Important:

   After you create a new observable record, Prevent System Updates check box is displayed.

   Select this check box to prevent any updates from the system after the observable or indicator or STIX objects records are created.

   Table 4. Tags&Taxonomies

   Field	Description
   Tags
   Select Tags	Select the tags that are associated with the vulnerability.
   Add Tags	Add new tags.
   Taxonomies
   Select Taxonomy	Select a Taxonomy that is associated with this vulnerability.
   Add Taxonomy Values	Add Taxonomy values that are associated with this vulnerability.

Note:

1. You can link and unlink the related records associated with this object. For more information, see Link Threat Intel Related Records.
2. The various SDOs within the TI library also contains the potential relationships. To establish a relationships between any two objects, you use the Potential Relationships link from the Threat Intel Library to confirm the relationships between the objects. For more information, see Confirm object-object potential relationships.
3. Also, use the Related Records section from the objects form view to confirm the relationships between two Objects using the Potential Relationships section available on the form view. For more information on see, Confirm Potential Relationships from Related Records.
4. You can add objects to cases. For more information, see Add to Case.
