Yes.

Though, since we're doing science here, "must be" is a little too strong, and 'collisionless', 'cold', and 'non-baryonic' will, of course, be appropriately defined (and constrained).

And the primary thrust is 'dark matter' - i.e. mass which neither emits nor absorbs electromagnetic radiation, in the relevant wavebands, to the established observational limits.
