The US Cyber Command (Cybercom), the Cyber National Mission Force (CNMF) — a unit within the US DoD launched at a National Security Agency (NSA) event in 2014 — is overseeing the new malware intelligence sharing initiative.

“Recognizing the value of collaboration with the public sector, the CNMF has initiated an effort to share unclassified malware samples it has discovered that it believes will have the greatest impact on improving global cybersecurity,” US Cyber Command said.

CNMF posted two malware samples to the VirusTotal website yesterday, both of which are identified as variants of LoJack aka LoJax malware by antivirus vendors. The group’s submissions can be found on its VirusTotal profile.
