Malware is like an old can of peas.

It's been on the shelf for 20 years and it's still good

Company executives when they're asked if they've been compromised

Hello, how are you?

Due to increased sponsorships, donors, and nerds purchasing merchandise we are now increasing the volume of malware samples for nerds to reverse engineer, or build rules for, or something.

Have a nice day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend:)

Important updates:

1. We are establishing a 'schedule' to add some structure to our workflow (for the first time in 4+ years). Wednesday and Friday will be when updates are pushed to the website e.g. malware papers, archives, malware samples, etc. Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday will be dedicated to us aggregating content, posting nonsense, etc. Saturdays and Sundays we may or may not work, it depends entirely on our mood and what's happening.

2. Due to increased sponsorships, monthly donors, and people purchasing merchandise, we have successfully increased the volume of samples we are uploading to the VXDB. We are now aiming to upload 200,000+ malware samples a month.

3. We are still working on enhancing the website, making it scrapable, and allowing nerds to do mass downloads from the VXDB.

4. We are working on some limited edition merchandise for the holiday season for vx-underground. Additionally, all merchandise will be disconnected throughout the entire month of December.

5. We're going to be doing more giveaways this month. If you have a suggestion, let us know.

Have a nice day (night?). See you all tomorrow:)

tl;dr schedule for adding stuff, more malware samples, still working on website, holiday merch and holiday sales, more giveaways

We are doing another series of book giveaways on Twitter.

Today we received a notification from an individual who wished to remain anonymous.

They informed us that their jobs training for new employees, which derives from IANS, features vx-underground

tl;dr we have infiltrated the non-nerds using malware and edgy pictures

Open source vape 😭😭😭

As vx-underground grows in size and reaches more and more non-nerds, we continue to receive e-mails like this

Hello, how are you?

In case you've missed it: we do all data pushes on Wednesday and Friday now. Today is our first official update Wednesday.

The landing page contains "2023-11-15 - Updates.txt". This will list all new additions.

Have a nice day. 🥰

We have had 8 people purchase the complete vx-underground collection - an external harddrive featuring everything we currently have in our collection.

Beside a handwritten thank you letter, it will feature a giant warning label somewhere on it.

If you mount this drive on Windows ... DISABLE ALL ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE. Windows Defender and/or your AV will 100% go ballistic. It will automatically detect upwards of 30,000,000+ malware samples it believes to be present on your machine.

Your OS WILL BSOD. No AV is designed to list and/or quarantine 30,000,000+ files.

You've been warned. Please be careful.

We informed someone that the mountain of 10TB external harddrives in our possession will be loaded up with 30,000,000+ malware samples and mailed to various people across the planet.

They called us the Unibomber 😭

We will be removing the 'ARREST WAZWAKA' t-shirt from the vx-underground store soon. The shirt was created and released as a meme and it no longer serves a purpose for being on our shop.

If you'd like to buy the silly shirt, do it before we nuke it December 1st, 2023.

Behold! 19,999,999 malware samples in the VXDB!

*Upload is async so it's not in order

Hello, how are you?

Unfortunately we've sold out on selling the complete vx-underground collection. We set a limit of 20 due to the work required to clone vx-underground 20 times.

When all 20 orders are completed we will re-stock another 20 harddrives.

Thanks,

YouTuber SomeOrdinaryGamers purchased a copy of the vx-underground collection.

If you're curious how non-nerds perceive malware or vx-underground - read the comments. It's ... something...
