Annotations | # Intelligence Community Technical Specification CVE Encoding Specification for US Agency Acronyms (USAgency.CES) ## Notices Distribution Notice: This document has been approved for Public Release and is available for use without restriction. ## Description W3C XML Schema for the CVE Encoding Specification for US Agency Acronyms (USAgency.CES). ## Introduction This XML Schema file is one component of the CVE Encoding Specification (CES). Please see the document titled CVE Encoding Specification for US Agency Acronyms for a complete description of the encoding as well as list of all components. It is envisioned that this schema or its components, as well as other parts of the CES may be overridden for localized implementations. Therefore, permission to use, copy, modify and distribute this XML Schema and the other parts of the CES for any purpose is hereby granted in perpetuity. Please reference the preceding two paragraphs in all copies or variations. The developers make no representation about the suitability of the schema or CES for any purpose. It is provided "as is" without expressed or implied warranty. If you modify this XML Schema in any way label your schema as a variant of USAgency.CES. Please direct all questions, bug reports,or suggestions for changes to the points of contact identified in the document referenced above. ## Implementation Notes The USAgency schema is not a standalone construct; it should be imported into a parent XML schema. Refer to the CVE Data Encoding Specification for US Agency Acronyms CVE Data Encoding Specification (USAgency.XML CES) for an explanation of the controlled vocabularies. USAgency does not have a root node. There are one or more peer elements that reference each of its CVE schema fragments. Element USAgency contains all valid Executive and Legislative branch acronyms. Element USGOVAgency contains all valid Executive branch acronyms. The USAgency attributes are intended to support distribution of ORCON data, and the exchange of enterprise audit records. The controlled vocabularies containing the values for populating the attributes are described in the USAgency.XML CES. Elements declared in this specification are conveniences to developers of Schema. Their use is not required but was determined to be helpful for many Schemas that would otherwise have to declare these simple elements. Schema developers are free to implement their own versions of these elements. ## Creators Office of the Director of National Intelligence Intelligence Community Chief Information Officer ## Formal Change List
