Use Cases

  <p>Learn how to use STIX in real-world scenarios!</p>

  <a class="btn btn-primary" href="/usecases">Go »</a>
</div>

Concepts

  <p>This page describes several central STIX concepts that cut
  across all of the core STIX data types, including extension points,
  relationships, versioning, and data markings.</p>

  <h4><a href="idioms">Idioms</a></h4>

  <p>STIX idioms describe how common patterns in threat intelligence (for
  example, C2 IPs for a trojan) are represented in STIX. They're similar to
  programming language idioms in that they document common patterns for
  representing content in STIX.</p>

  <h4><a href="profiles">Profiles</a></h4>

  <p>STIX Profiles are a mechanism to allow communities of interest to
  define how they intend to use STIX. They're most often used to define
  which parts of the STIX/CybOX data models are in scope.</p>

  <h4><a href="http://stix.readthedocs.org" target="_blank">Python Scripting</a></h4>

  <p>The STIX Project provides an official Python library for scripting the creation, modification, and processing
	  of STIX documents. The documentation is available online, and describes how to install and usage the library. Additionally, it provides API documentation for the library.</p>

Security Considerations

  <p>Security considerations are a list of security issues that might arise
  when processing STIX content. The guide is non-exhaustive and does not
  take the place of security coding practices or other security processes
  but can be a good starting point.</p>

  <h4><a href="suggested-practices">Suggested Practices</a></h4>

  <p>Suggested practices (often called best practices) are guidelines that
  will help you create STIX content that conforms to the STIX design goals
  and ensures the best compatibility with other STIX tooling.</p>

  <h4><a href="utilities">Utilities</a></h4>

  <p>The utilities page has information on both STIX-provided and
  community-provided utilities for working with STIX. It includes both
  user-level utilities such as visualization tools and developer-focused
  tooling such as bindings and APIs.</p>

  <h4><a href="validation">Validation</a></h4>

  <p>Checking whether STIX content is valid is an important part of helping
  to ensure compatibility. The STIX Validation rules outline how STIX
  documents can be validated against either STIX in general or against a
  specific profile.</p>
