IncidentBaseTypeSTIX Common Schema

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/1.0/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.
