STIX

STIX (Structured Threat Information Expression) is the OASIS JSON standard for sharing threat intelligence such as indicators, malware and campaigns between tools.

How it works

A STIX 2.1 bundle contains objects (indicator, domain-name, url, malware, relationship) with identifiers and timestamps. TAXII is the companion protocol for exchanging bundles.

PhishDestroy publishes its phishing-domain feed as a STIX 2.1 bundle next to JSON and MISP formats.

How to protect yourself

  • Import STIX feeds into a TIP or SIEM instead of copying indicators by hand.
  • Keep valid_from and valid_until so stale indicators expire.
