Background: I used the predefined collection index and imported only the enterprise collection stix bundle while keeping everything the default.

[Yash66666]

Also, while importing the collection from the official ATT&CK repository on the frontend workbench, there was an object which could not be imported. Could this be a reason why the issue is occuring?

[Yash66666]

There is a strange issue, it all seems to work fine for some versions. But for those versions when I edit something on the workbench and then try update-attack.py, it stops working

[Yash66666]

For instance, It was working for the version 8 of enterprise matrix. But when I just tried to change the description of the enterprise matrix from the frontend and then tried to execute the update-attack.py, it shows the same error again.

Hi @Yash66666, thanks for opening this issue. The error looks related to the tactic of a technique. Did you modify a technique or was it only changing the description of the enterprise matrix?

[Yash66666]

Hi, It was just the description of the matrix. Also I was wondering is there a way to add or modify the assets in the ICS Matrix (this is related to workbench I think). The current assets are HMI, control server, etc. And finally wanted to ask about the ICS website to be integrated with the main Mitre website.

[IanDavila]

We are currently working on adding ICS to the website (See issue #272). We encountered errors on some ICS techniques similar to what you originally provided. If you are trying to integrate ICS technique to the website then it's likely to be that. We are working on making those fixing on the ICS STIX bundle itself. The target to add ICS to the website is during the next ATT&CK content release in April.

Regarding Also I was wondering is there a way to add or modify the assets in the ICS Matrix: Would appreciate if you could open an issue on https://github.com/center-for-threat-informed-defense/attack-workbench-frontend for the team to look into it

Sure thing, Thank you so much!
