Work product title and version number: OpenC2 Use of Google Cloud Pub/Sub
Messaging
Work product abbreviation: gglpubsub
Track: Non-Standards Track Work Product
Abstract: Open Command and Control (OpenC2) is a concise and extensible
language
to enable the command and control of cyber defense components, subsystems
and/or
systems in a manner that is agnostic of the underlying products,
technologies,
transport mechanisms or other aspects of the implementation. Google Cloud
Platform (GCP) Pub/Sub (i.e., publish / subscribe) is an asynchronous
communication method that enables messages to be exchanged without knowing
the
identity of the sender or recipient. This document describes the use of GCP
Pub/Sub as a transfer mechanism for OpenC2 messages, and captures experience
and
lessons learned from utilizing GCP Pub/Sub at the January 2020 OpenC2 Plug
Fest.
The information contained within this document can be applied when using the
GCP
Pub/Sub implementation for conveying OpenC2 command and response messages,
and
may also be useful with other publish / subscribe protocol implementations.
