# API Reference: Campaign Attribution Evidence Analysis
## Diamond Model of Intrusion Analysis
### Four Core Features
| Feature | Description | Attribution Value |
|---------|-------------|-------------------|
| Adversary | Threat actor identity | Direct attribution |
| Capability | Malware, exploits, tools | Indirect - shared tooling |
| Infrastructure | C2, domains, IPs | Strong - operational overlap |
| Victim | Targets, sectors, regions | Contextual - targeting pattern |
### Pivot Analysis
```
Adversary ←→ Capability ←→ Infrastructure ←→ Victim
↕ ↕ ↕ ↕
(HUMINT) (Malware DB) (WHOIS/DNS) (Victimology)
```
## Analysis of Competing Hypotheses (ACH)
### Matrix Format
```
Evidence \ Hypothesis | APT28 | APT29 | Lazarus | Unknown
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Infrastructure overlap | ++ | - | - | N
TTP consistency | ++ | ++ | - | N
Malware similarity | + | - | - | N
Timing (UTC+3) | ++ | ++ | - | N
Language (Russian) | ++ | ++ | - | N
```
### Scoring
| Symbol | Meaning | Weight |
|--------|---------|--------|
| `++` | Strongly consistent | +2 |
| `+` | Consistent | +1 |
| `N` | Neutral | 0 |
| `-` | Inconsistent | -1 |
| `--` | Strongly inconsistent | -2 |
## MITRE ATT&CK Group Queries
### Python (mitreattack-python)
```python
from mitreattack.stix20 import MitreAttackData
attack = MitreAttackData("enterprise-attack.json")
group = attack.get_group_by_alias("APT29")
techniques = attack.get_techniques_used_by_group(group.id)
```
### STIX2 Relationship Query
```python
from stix2 import Filter
relationships = src.query([
Filter("type", "=", "relationship"),
Filter("source_ref", "=", group_id),
Filter("relationship_type", "=", "uses"),
])
```
## Infrastructure Overlap Tools
### PassiveTotal / RiskIQ
```bash
# WHOIS history
curl -u user:key "https://api.passivetotal.org/v2/whois?query=domain.com"
# Passive DNS
curl -u user:key "https://api.passivetotal.org/v2/dns/passive?query=1.2.3.4"
```
### VirusTotal Relations
```bash
curl -H "x-apikey: KEY" \
"https://www.virustotal.com/api/v3/domains/example.com/communicating_files"
```
## Confidence Assessment Framework
| Level | Score Range | Criteria |
|-------|------------|---------|
| HIGH | 0.8-1.0 | Multiple independent evidence types converge |
| MEDIUM | 0.5-0.8 | Significant evidence with some gaps |
| LOW | 0.2-0.5 | Limited evidence, alternative hypotheses remain |
| NEGLIGIBLE | 0.0-0.2 | Insufficient evidence for attribution |
## STIX Attribution Objects
