chg: [threat-actor] fix #561 by using new meta to classify as a campa…
…ign only. Based on #469 There is an old and persistence issue in attribution world and basically no-one really agrees on this. So we decided to start a specific metadata `threat-actor-classification` on the threat-actor to define the various types per cluster entry: - _operation_: - _A military operation is the coordinated military actions of a state, or a non-state actor, in response to a developing situation. These actions are designed as a military plan to resolve the situation in the state or actor's favor. Operations may be of a combat or non-combat nature and may be referred to by a code name for the purpose of national security. Military operations are often known for their more generally accepted common usage names than their actual operational objectives._ from Wikipedia - **In the context of MISP threat-actor name, it's a single specific operation.** - _campaign_: - _The term military campaign applies to large scale, long duration, significant military strategy plans incorporating a series of inter-related military operations or battles forming a distinct part of a larger conflict often called a war. The term derives from the plain of Campania, a place of annual wartime operations by the armies of the Roman Republic._ from Wikipedia - **In the context of MISP threat-actor-name, it's long-term activity which might be composed of one or more operations.** - threat-actor - **In the context of MISP threat-actor-name, it's an agreed name by a set of organisations.** - activity group - **In the context of MISP threat-actor-name, it's a group defined by its set of common techniques or activities.** - unknown - **In the context of MISP threat-actor-name, it's still not clear if it's an operation, campaign, threat-actor or activity group** The meta field is an array to allow specific cluster of threat-actor to show the current disagreement between different organisations about the type (threat actor, activity group, campaign and operation).
