I can see where you headed. I looked at NIST Asset Reporting Format (ARF) [ NISTIR-7694 and
NISTIR-7693 ] at one point as a representation for assets so that I could complete the linkage you mentioned below.

Right, I see CRE potentially useful as a middleware for a link to NIST SP 800-53 kind of things, for example in the COAs context
I see CCE leverageable via use of an OVAL like language for IT-Assets
And the CAPEC-CWE-CVE-CPE link
PS: sorry if out of scope

I looked through the XML schema and its appears to be focused more on human-readable remediation descriptions than machine-based.
With regards to ‘@all’, I completely agree where possible. Where not possible, we need to be trying to “embrace and extend” where possible so we can leverage the learning that has been done.

Jerome,
As always, thanks for sharing timely references to "our thing". We need to leverage these standards wherever possible/practical.
Question
"CRE enables automation and enhanced correlation of enterprise remediation activities."
I'm not seeing where CRE provides the machine readable specification (or reference to same) required to perform the very specific remediation action(s) to achieve, measure, or validate the remediation objectives/outcomes.
It would seem that the reference to the OVRL specification or some other reference that leads one to the specific OVRL The only specific external reference I see is the CPE (Common Platform Enumeration)?
...What am I missing?
@All: (1) I like the Use Case formats of the NIST documents. It would be great if we could adopt same or something similar to map to these existing body of work. (2) Why reinvent taxonomies, descriptions, etc. where substantive instantiations of same
(i.e., CCE, CVE, CPE) already exist?
