MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) is an open-source tool designed for the detection, sharing, and analysis of cyber threat intelligence. It plays a significant role in supporting compliance with the ISO/IEC 27010:2015 standard, which provides guidance for information security management in inter-sector and inter-organizational communications.
How MISP Supports ISO/IEC 27010:2015
ISO/IEC 27010:2015 complements ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002 by offering additional guidance for securely sharing sensitive information across organizational boundaries. MISP supports this standard in the following ways:
- Support for Information-Sharing Communities:
MISP allows the creation of trusted communities where multiple organizations can securely exchange information. - Flexible Data Model:
The platform supports various types of events and attributes, aligning with classification and handling requirements outlined by the standard. - Granular Sharing Controls:
MISP offers configurable sharing levels (e.g., organization only, community, connected communities), helping to ensure proper dissemination of information according to compliance needs.
Key MISP Features Aligned with the Standard
- Organizational and User Structures:
MISP supports clear management of users and organizations, enabling proper tracking of information sources and recipients. - Event and Attribute Handling:
The platform supports detailed event management, including attributes like IP addresses and domain names—critical for identifying and sharing cyber threats. - Integration and Automation:
MISP includes a REST API that enables integration with other systems and supports automation in processing and sharing threat data.
Applicability and Compliance Support
While MISP is not a full information security management system (ISMS), it provides powerful features that assist in meeting the requirements of ISO/IEC 27010:2015. It is particularly valuable for organizations that need to securely share sensitive information across sectors and want to ensure data confidentiality and integrity.
