OpenC2 is a suite of specifications that enables command and control of cyber defense systems and components. OpenC2 typically uses a request-response paradigm where a Command is encoded by a Producer (managing application) and transferred to a Consumer (managed device or virtualized function) using a secure transfer protocol, and the Consumer can respond with status and any requested information.
OpenC2 allows the application producing the commands to discover the set of capabilities supported by the managed devices. These capabilities permit the managing application to adjust its behavior to take advantage of the features exposed by the managed device. The capability definitions can be easily extended in a noncentralized manner, allowing standard and non-standard capabilities to be defined with semantic and syntactic rigor.

In general, there are two types of participants involved in the exchange of OpenC2 Messages, as depicted in Figure 1-1:
Figure 1-1. OpenC2 Message Exchange
OpenC2 is a suite of specifications for Producers and Consumers to command and execute cyber defense functions. These specifications include the OpenC2 Language Specification, Actuator Profiles, and Transfer Specifications. The OpenC2 Language Specification and Actuator Profile specifications focus on the language content and meaning at the Producer and Consumer of the Command and Response while the transfer specifications focus on the protocols for their exchange.
The OpenC2 Language Specification defines a language used to compose Messages for command and control of cyber defense systems and components. A Message consists of a header and a payload (defined as a Message body in the OpenC2 Language Specification Version 1.0 and specified in one or more Actuator profiles).
The language defines two payload structures:
OpenC2 implementations integrate the related OpenC2 specifications described above with related industry specifications, protocols, and standards. Figure 1-2 depicts the relationships among OpenC2 specifications, and their relationships to other industry standards and environment-specific implementations of OpenC2. Note that the layering of implementation aspects in the diagram is notional, and not intended to preclude any particular approach to implementing the needed functionality (for example, the use of an application-layer message signature function to provide message source authentication and integrity).
Figure 1-2. OpenC2 Documentation and Layering Model
OpenC2 is conceptually partitioned into four layers as shown in Table 1-1.
Table 1-1. OpenC2 Protocol Layers
| Layer | Examples |
|---|---|
| Function-Specific Content | Actuator Profiles ([OpenC2-SLPF-v1.0], ...) |
| Common Content | OpenC2 Language Specification ([OpenC2-Lang-v1.0]) |
| Message | Transfer Specifications ([OpenC2-HTTPS-v1.0], OpenC2-over-CoAP, ...) |
| Secure Transport | HTTPS, CoAP, MQTT, OpenDXL, ... |
The components of a Command are an Action (what is to be done), a Target (what is being acted upon), an optional Actuator (what is performing the command), and Command Arguments, which influence how the Command is to be performed. An Action coupled with a Target is sufficient to describe a complete Command. Though optional, the inclusion of an Actuator and/or Command Arguments provides additional precision to a Command.
The components of a Response are a numerical status code, an optional status text string, and optional results. The format of the results, if included, depend on the type of Response being transferred.
The goal of the OpenC2 Language Specification is to provide a language for interoperating between functional elements of cyber defense systems. This language used in conjunction with OpenC2 Actuator Profiles and OpenC2 Transfer Specifications allows for vendor-agnostic cybertime response to attacks.
The Integrated Adaptive Cyber Defense (IACD) framework defines a collection of activities, based on the traditional OODA (Observe–Orient–Decide–Act) Loop [IACD]:
The goal of OpenC2 is to enable coordinated defense in cyber-relevant time between decoupled blocks that perform cyber defense functions. OpenC2 focuses on the Acting portion of the IACD framework; the assumption that underlies the design of OpenC2 is that the sensing/analytics have been provisioned and the decision to act has been made. This goal and these assumptions guide the design of OpenC2:
This document specifies the use of Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) over Transport Layer Security (TLS) as a transfer mechanism for OpenC2 Messages; this HTTP/TLS layering is typically referred to as HTTPS [RFC2818]. As described in [RFC3205], HTTP has become a common "substrate" for information transfer for other application-level protocols. The broad availability of HTTP makes it a useful option for OpenC2 Message transport in support of prototyping, interoperability testing, and for operational use in environments where appropriate security protections can be provided. Similarly, TLS is a mature and widely-used protocol for securing information transfers in TCP/IP network environments. This specification provides guidance to the OpenC2 implementation community when utilizing HTTPS for OpenC2 Message transport. It includes guidance for selection of TLS versions and options suitable for use with OpenC2.
This OpenC2 over HTTPS transfer specification is suitable for operational environments where:
An additional application for this transfer specification is interoperability test environments.
This section is non-normative.
This section describes the operating model used when transferring OpenC2 Commands and Responses using HTTPS.
Each endpoint of an OpenC2-over-HTTPS interaction has both an OpenC2 role and an HTTP function. OpenC2 Consumers will be HTTP listeners so that they can accept connections and receive unsolicited Commands from OpenC2 Producers. OpenC2 Producers act as 'HTTP clients' and transmit Commands to Consumers.
Figure 2 illustrates the Producer / Consumer interactions. A Producer that needs to send OpenC2 Commands initiates a TCP connection to the Consumer. Once the TCP connection is created, a TLS session is initiated to authenticate the endpoints and provide connection confidentiality. The Producer can then issue OpenC2 Commands by sending HTTP requests using the POST method, with Consumer OpenC2 Responses returned in the HTTP response.
Figure 2 -- OpenC2 Producer / Consumer Interactions
The section defines the requirements for using HTTP and TLS with OpenC2, including general requirements and protocol mappings for the operating configuration described in Section 2.
When using HTTPS for OpenC2 Message transfer, the layering model is:
| Layer | Description |
|---|---|
| OpenC2 Content | The OpenC2 Language Specification defines the overall OpenC2 language, and the Actuator Profile(s) implemented by any particular endpoint scopes the OpenC2 actions, targets, arguments, and specifiers that apply when commanding that type of Actuator. |
| Serialization | Serialization converts internal representations of OpenC2 content into a form that can be transmitted and received. The OpenC2 default serialization is JSON. |
| Message | The message layer provides a content- and transport-independent mechanism for conveying requests and responses. A Message consists of content plus a set of meta items such as content type and version, sender, timestamp, and correlation id. This layer maps the transport-independent definition of each message element to its transport-specific on-the-wire representation. |
| HTTP | The HTTP layer is responsible for conveying request and response Messages, as described in this specification. |
| TLS | The TLS layer is responsible for authentication of connection endpoints and confidentiality and integrity of transferred Messages. |
| Lower Layer Transport | The lower protocol layers are responsible for end-to-end delivery of Messages. TCP/IP is the most common suite of lower layer protocols used with HTTPS. |
This section defines serialization, HTTP, and TLS requirements.
While the OpenC2 language is agnostic of serialization, when transferring OpenC2 Messages over HTTP/TLS as described in this specification, the default JSON serialization described in [OpenC2-Lang-v1.0] MUST be supported.
As described in [OpenC2-Lang-v1.0], transfer protocols must convey message elements. Two content types are defined here to support that requirement:
When OpenC2 Command Messages sent over HTTPS use the default JSON serialization the message MUST specify the content type "application/openc2-cmd+json;version=1.0".
When OpenC2 Response Messages sent over HTTPS use the default JSON serialization the message MUST specify the content type "application/openc2-rsp+json;version=1.0".
OpenC2 Consumers MUST be HTTP listeners, to implement the operating model described in Section 2. OpenC2 Consumers acting as HTTP listeners SHOULD listen on port 443, the registered port for HTTPS.
OpenC2 endpoints MUST implement all HTTP functionality required by this specification in accordance with HTTP/1.1 ([RFC7230], et. al.). As described in the Table 3-1, the only HTTP request method utilized is POST.
| Utilized? | HTTP Methods |
|---|---|
| Yes | POST |
| No | GET, HEAD, PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS, TRACE |
Table 3-1: HTTP Method Use
Each HTTP message body MUST contain only a single OpenC2 Command or Response message. This does not preclude a Producer and Consumer exchanging multiple OpenC2 Command and Response Messages over time during a single HTTPS session. Depending on the set-up, a server and client can have multiple connections, but a sequence of OpenC2 interactions can spread over multiple connections. In some cases the connection may drop, but the session remains open (in an idle state).
All HTTP request and response messages containing OpenC2 payloads SHOULD include the "Cache-control:" header with a value of "no-cache".
The HTTP X-Request-ID header SHOULD be populated with the request_id string supplied by the Producer.
HTTPS, the transmission of HTTP over TLS, is specified in Section 2 of [RFC2818]. OpenC2 endpoints MUST accept TLS version 1.2 [RFC5246] connections or higher for confidentiality, identification, and authentication when sending OpenC2 Messages over HTTPS, and SHOULD accept TLS Version 1.3 [RFC8446] or higher connections.
OpenC2 endpoints MUST NOT support any version of TLS prior to v1.2 and MUST NOT support any version of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
The implementation and use of TLS SHOULD align with the best currently available security guidance, such as that provided in [RFC7525]/BCP 195.
The TLS session MUST use non-NULL ciphersuites for authentication, integrity, and confidentiality. Sessions MAY be renegotiated within these constraints.
OpenC2 endpoints supporting TLS v1.2 MUST NOT use any of the blacklisted ciphersuites identified in Appendix A of [RFC7540].
OpenC2 endpoints supporting TLS 1.3 MUST NOT implement zero round trip time resumption (0-RTT).
Each participant in an OpenC2 communication MUST authenticate the other participant.
This section defines HTTP requirements that apply when the OpenC2 Consumer is the HTTP server.
As the OpenC2 Consumer is the HTTP server, the Producer initiates a connection to a specific Consumer and directly transmits OpenC2 Messages containing Commands; the HTTP POST method is used, with the OpenC2 Command body contained in the POST body.
The following HTTP request headers MUST be populated when transferring OpenC2 Commands:
The following HTTP request header SHOULD be populated when transferring OpenC2 Commands:
The following HTTP response headers MUST be populated when transferring OpenC2 Responses:
The following HTTP request and response headers SHOULD be populated when transferring OpenC2 Commands and Responses when the Consumer is the HTTP/TLS server:
Example messages can be found in Annex B, section B.1.
A conformant implementation of this transfer specification MUST:
| Name | HTTPS Implementation |
|---|---|
| content | JSON serialization of OpenC2 Commands and Responses carried in the HTTP message body |
| content_type / msg_type |
Combined and carried in the HTTP Content-type and Accepted headers: Command: application/openc2-cmd+json;version=1.0 Response: application/openc2-rsp+json;version=1.0 |
| status | Numeric status code supplied by OpenC2 Consumers is carried in the HTTP response start line status code. |
| request_id | String value originally supplied by the OpenC2 Producer is carried in HTTP X-Request-ID header. |
| created | Carried in the HTTP Date header in the preferred IMF-fixdate format as defined by Section 7.1.1.1 of RFC 7231. |
| from | Populated with the authenticated identity of the peer entity, consistent with the configured authentication scheme. |
| to | Carried in the HTTP Host header; this specification assumes that the Provider will supply a single destination. |

OpenC2 Messages consist of a set of "message elements" defined in Section 3.2 of [OpenC2-Lang-v1.0]. Table 4-1 of this specification defines how the message elements are handled with HTTPS transfer. Broadly speaking the message content (i.e., Commands and Responses) is carried in the HTTP message body while the remaining elments are handled in HTTP headers. The example Messages below illustrate how this is handled in practice.
A Request-URI ending in /openc2 is used in all example HTTP requests.
This section presents the HTTP message structures used when the OpenC2 Consumer acts as the HTTP listener.
Example message:
