Class: AttackMalware

Malware represents malicious software programs that adversaries use to accomplish their operational objectives, such as data exfiltration, persistent access, lateral movement, or destructive impact. ATT&CK tracks both malware families (is_family: true) and specific malware instances or samples (is_family: false).

Together with Tool objects, Malware forms the ATT&CK 'Software' category. Both share the ATT&CK ID format S#### and are often linked to Groups and Techniques via 'uses' relationships.

The x_mitre_aliases field holds ATT&CK-recognized alternative names; the first alias MUST match the object's name. The STIX 'aliases' property is defined in the STIX specification but is not actively maintained in ATT&CK Malware objects.

Note: Several STIX Malware properties (malware_types, kill_chain_phases, first_seen, last_seen, architecture_execution_envs, implementation_languages, capabilities) are available from the STIX specification but not actively used in ATT&CK.
