Cybersecurity is one of the greatest challenges our modern society faces and requires a coordinated approach to succeed. Under OASIS leadership, we see an opportunity to better organize the good guys to fight cybercriminals by sharing cyber threat intelligence data in an automated and efficient data standard.

OASIS TC members act like extra QA resources for one another. We put our products together and shake out incompatibility issues. Finding those before we ship is invaluable.

One thing that makes OASIS stand out is its openness. It’s not just that the standards are open and freely available in perpetuity, but also that the whole process is open.

As a Sponsor of the OASIS CTI Technical Committee, we are delighted to be at the forefront of advancing critically important standards like STIX, TAXII and CybOX. By creating protocols that address how to best model, analyze, and share cyber threat intelligence, we can provide greater support to overwhelmed security professionals.

Check Point

Focusing on standardizing threat intelligence technologies to keep sensitive government and corporate information secure is paramount to the mission of OASIS and its members. At ViaSat, we take a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity, from identifying potential cyber and physical security vulnerabilities to designing and implementing a plan that leverages big data analytics, intuitive visualization and intelligent automation to keep pace with evolving threats no matter where data resides on the network or how it is accessed.

iSIGHT Partners, creator of the commercial cyber threat intelligence category, understands how security organizations can gain the advantage over adversaries by using threat intelligence across their security and risk management program. As an early contributor and enabler of STIX, we welcome the opportunity to join with OASIS to further develop CTI standards and accelerate the adoption of context rich threat intelligence.

At OASIS, you don't have to be a large vendor to influence work. Of all the standards bodies we’ve participated in, OASIS is the only one we recommend with no hesitation. It is a group that simply works.

Tim Hudson

Technical Director

Cryptsoft Pty Ltd

We are proud to support the work OASIS is doing to advance their cybersecurity specifications and promote information sharing, a critical factor in today's security posture. By sharing details about malicious incidents quickly, not only between the public and private sectors, but across industry lines within the private sector as well, we can work together to better defend ourselves and stay ahead of the hackers.

Paul Kurtz

TruSTAR Technology

STIX and TAXII in particular are important initiatives towards next generation threat intelligence. Using the same terms, data streams, and threat modeling methods will help researchers, vendors, and law enforcement alike share information back and forth to stay abreast or even ahead of threat actor groups. We are pleased to contribute to this and more through OASIS.

Derek Manky

Global Security Strategist

Fortinet

We have long been committed to any advances that can better enable the sharing of threat intelligence among security professionals. Until now, organizations have been hampered by a lack of common standards and the tendency for security information to be siloed. We strongly support this important endeavor and look forward to contributing to the standardization being led by OASIS.

NEC is very pleased to be part of the CTI Technical Committee and continues to drive CTI adoption with industry partnerships to benefit customers.

We have been advocates of STIX, TAXII and CybOx for some time. OASIS as an international standards checkpoint will undoubtedly improve threat intelligence sharing amongst partners by facilitating the exchange of computer-readable threat information.

Development of an industry-wide standards framework for cyber threat intelligence is crucial for the information security industry to be able to define and share threats. New Context is a proud sponsor of OASIS and believes strongly in open and transparent standards frameworks development. We look forward to collaborating on the next standards for STIX, CybOX and TAXII.

Daniel Riedel

I always encourage vendors with products related to access control, security, or cloud computing to join the appropriate OASIS Technical Committees and contribute to the standards work. We all benefit that way.
