<xs:element name="Confidence" type="stixCommon:ConfidenceType" minOccurs="0"><xs:annotation><xs:documentation>The confidence field specifies the level of confidence in the assertion of the relationship between the two components.</xs:documentation></xs:annotation></xs:element>
Specifies the level of confidence held in this direct assertion.
This field is implemented through the xsi:type controlled vocabulary extension mechanism. The default vocabulary type is HighMediumLowVocab-1.0 in the http://stix.mitre.org/default_vocabularies-1 namespace. This type is defined in the stix_default_vocabularies.xsd file or at the URL http://stix.mitre.org/XMLSchema/default_vocabularies/1.1.1/stix_default_vocabularies.xsd.
Users may also define their own vocabulary using the type extension mechanism, specify a vocabulary name and reference using the attributes, or simply use this as a string field.
The vocab_reference field specifies the URI to the location of where the controlled vocabulary is defined, e.g., in an externally located XML schema file.

This type extends from stixCommon:KillChainPhaseType and contains several attributes that are redundant to the original kill chain definition: @kill_chain_name, @ordinality, and @name. These attributes should not be used to redefine attributes in the referenced kill chain. Instead, it is strongly suggested that they either be omitted or, if they are present, they must contain the same values as the kill chain definition. This ensures data consistency across the kill chain itself and all references to it.
This field specifies the descriptive name of the relevant kill chain. If a kill chain is being referenced (via the kill_chain_id field), this field should be omitted or, if present, must match the kill chain name of the kill chain referenced by the @kill_chain_id attribute.
This field specifies the descriptive name of the relevant kill chain phase.
When used within a kill chain reference, this attribute should be omitted or, if it is present, must match the name used in the kill chain phase definition that this field references.
This field specifies the ordinality (e.g. 1, 2 or 3) of this phase within this kill chain definition.
When used within a kill chain reference, this attribute should be omitted or, if it is present, must match the ordinality used in the kill chain phase definition that this field references.
A globally unique identifier for this kill chain phase.
When used directly within a kill chain definition, this attribute must be globally unique and serves to identify the kill chain phase being defined. When used within a kill chain reference, this attribute must reference an existing kill chain phase phase_id and serves as a reference (similar to @idref elsewhere in STIX).

StatementType allows the expression of a statement with an associated value, description, source, confidence, and timestamp.
Represents the precision of the associated timestamp value. If omitted, the default is "second", meaning the timestamp is precise to the full field value. Digits in the timestamp that are required by the xs:dateTime datatype but are beyond the specified precision should be zeroed out.

Allows the expression of a list of relationships between STIX components. It's extended throughout STIX and should not be used directly.
Indicates how multiple related items should be interpreted in this relationship. If "inclusive" is specified, then a single conceptual relationship is being defined between the subject and the collection of objects indicated by the related items (i.e. the relationship is not necessarily relevant for any one particular object being referenced, but for the aggregated collection of objects referenced). If "exclusive" is specified, then multiple relationships are being defined between the specific subject and each object individually.

This type represents the STIX Incident component. It is extended using the XML Schema Extension feature by the STIX Incident type itself. Users of this type who wish to express a full incident using STIX must do so using the xsi:type extension feature. The STIX-defined Incident type is IncidentType in the http://stix.mitre.org/Incident-1 namespace. This type is defined in the incident.xsd file or at the URL http://stix.mitre.org/XMLSchema/incident/1.1.1/incident.xsd.
Alternatively, uses that require simply specifying an idref as a reference to an incident defined elsewhere can do so without specifying an xsi:type.
