The CARO naming convention is undergoing a rewrite and update.

But that's not the problem.  The problem is rapid resolution and
coordination in a worldwide outbreak.

Also, CARO pertains only to AV.  ISS and Eeye are not subscribers to the
CARO convention.  Though after the rewrite comes out, we would hope the IDS
environment comes up using the similar structure tailored for their own.
