Open Risk Model Repository Licence
Overview

This is the Open Risk Model Repository (ORIMOR) Licence Version 1.0 which is operated under the non-profit organisation Security Officers Management and Analysis Project (SOMAP.org). This licence, when applicable, covers all ORIMOR data that is distributed under the ORIMOR open source copyright provisions.

Licence Terms

1. All material is © Copyright 2004-2007, Security Officers Management and Analysis Project (SOMAP.org) / Open Risk Model Repository (ORIMOR). All Rights Reserved.

2. The ORIMOR consists of voluntary contributions made by many individuals on behalf of SOMAP.org and ORIMOR.

3. If the ORIMOR is the basis of, or integrated with, a non-profit or a commercially available product or service you MUST notify SOMAP.org by providing details on the usage. The information can be submitted via email to: contact@somap.org.

4. This License applies as long as the ORIMOR is given the required credit if it is used in any type of non-profit or commercially available software application, service, system, tool or utility. The credit requirements are as follows:

  • ORIMOR must be referenced as the data source in documentation, and
  • ORIMOR must be referenced as the data source in any stored output such as reports, and
  • ORIMOR must be referenced as the data source during the program's execution in one of the following ways:
  1. displayed on screen while program is running, or
  2. displayed on screen in "About" window, or
  3. displayed on screen at end of program termination (command line tool only), or
  4. displayed on screen during program help display (command line tool only).

5. Areas which require reference to the ORIMOR as described in section 4 must display the following acknowledgement: "This product includes data from the Open Risk Model Repository (ORIMOR) developed by the Security Officers Management and Analysis Project (SOMAP.org) and its contributors."

6. If you wish to re-brand the ORIMOR without meeting the requirements of Section 4, SOMAP.org may permit usage via an alternate license or written agreement. Contact contact@somap.org for additional information.

7. Redistribution of the ORIMOR must retain this entire license document whether it is packaged in a distribution, posted on a website, or any other distribution method.

8. NON TRANSFERABILITY: This License is non-transferable. This means that it applies to you, not to the people you distribute the product to. These people are subject to the same Copyright and MAY OR MAY NOT qualify for their own, free, unregistered license.

9. CONTRIBUTIONS AND MODIFICATIONS. SOMAP.org recognizes the huge benefit in open-source collaboration. SOMAP.org has gone to great pains to allow the ORIMOR data to be used freely, up to a point, while retaining the right to ensure the proper credit is given the project and licensed accordingly. SOMAP.org believes the copyright and this license together represent a compromise heavily weighted to the benefit of the open-source community and requests that any entities using the ORIMOR for commercial profit should consider becoming supporters of SOMAP.org.

In order for SOMAP.org to maintain control over ORIMOR, it is a condition of this license that any modifications (any changes, edits, deletes, or replacements to the ORIMOR) you suggest or submit be unencumbered. This means that you must release your modifications under the license terms defined under ORIMOR. Note that SOMAP.org assumes that any information submitted to us via email, submitted on a related public mailing list, or committed by the project participants to be free of any encumbrance and which can be incorporated into our master database solely under our own copyright.

10. Trademarked names may appear throughout the ORIMOR. Rather than list the names and entities that own the trademarks or insert a trademark symbol with each mention of the trademarked name, the names are used only for editorial purposes and to the benefit of the trademark owner with no intention of infringing upon that trademark.

11. NO WARRANTY THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE ORIMOR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE ORIMOR "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK OF USE OF THE ORIMOR IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE ORIMOR PROVE FAULTY, INACCURATE, OR OTHERWISE UNACCEPTABLE YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY THE ORIMOR IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS "AS IS" AND ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COPYRIGHT OWNER OR CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THE ORIMOR, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
