The "Anti-Phishing Working Group" ("APWG") is the global pan-industrial and law enforcement association focused on eliminating the fraud and identity theft that result from phishing, pharming and email spoofing of all types.

What is Phishing and Pharming?

Phishing attacks use both social engineering and technical subterfuge to steal consumers' personal identity data and financial account credentials. Social-engineering schemes use 'spoofed' e-mails to lead consumers to counterfeit websites designed to trick recipients into divulging financial data such as credit card numbers, account usernames, passwords and social security numbers. Hijacking brand names of banks, e-retailers and credit card companies, phishers often convince recipients to respond. Technical subterfuge schemes plant crimeware onto PCs to steal credentials directly, often using Trojan keylogger spyware. Pharming crimeware misdirects users to fraudulent sites or proxy servers, typically through DNS hijacking or poisoning.


Das Phishing-Archiv beginnt mit dem 21. September 2003.

Warum die Geheimdienste als "Intelligence Services" bezeichnet werden ist mir noch nicht klar.

Jedenfalls ist hier eine lange Liste mit Links zu Geheimdiensten in aller Welt zu finden.
In Deutschland sind unter "International Links Related to Strategic Intelligence" aufgeführt:

Wegen der vielen Abkürzungen und ihrer Langschrift belasse ich die folegenden Auszüge jedoch.

Nach den schlimmen Erfahrungen im Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde 1945 die "United Nations Organization" (auf Deutsch "Vereinte Nationen", abgekürzt "UNO" oder "VN" ("Vereinte Nationen")) mit Sitz in New York gegründet. Man wollte verhindern, dass sich solche Weltkriege wiederholen. Heute sind fast alle Staaten der Erde in der UNO. Wenn es Probleme zwischen Staaten gibt, versucht die UNO zu vermitteln und damit einen Krieg zu verhindern. Die Ziele der UNO sind: die Erhaltung des Weltfriedens und die internationale Sicherheit, die freundschaftliche Zusammenarbeit der Mitglieder sowie der Schutz der Menschenrechte. Die UNO hat viele Unterorganisationen gegründet. Eine davon ist das Weltkinderhilfswerk UNICEF, das sich um Kinder in der ganzen Welt kümmert.

Why virus names should be much, much simpler
Because the antivirus community can't decide what to name variants of the Yaha virus, your computer is more likely to be vulnerable to this threat. Sound unfair? It is. But Robert Vamosi has a way to solve this problem.

What's in a name? When it comes to viruses, plenty. A virus's full name is carefully constructed so that those of us who keep track of such things will know exactly which virus "family" it belongs to or whether it's a variant of an existing virus. The name also serves as a way for us to keep track of all the threats out there and make sure we download the necessary signature file updates for our antivirus software.

Eine wirklich wissenschaftliche Namensgebung gibt es anscheinend nicht. Oftmals wird der Name vom ersten Entdecker vergeben. Oder aber es setzt sich die Namensgebung einer Anti-Viren-Software durch (die in der Regel eine grosse Marktdurchdringung hat).


...
Assume there is a new virus. F-Prot calls it "foo.a", IBMAV called it "FBAR", scan calls it "foobar.d", and Findvirus called it "foo.mp.b". Who's right? No one is. Different doesn't mean "wrong." The bottom line is that it's just one virus, regardless of what they call it.
...


In der "WildList" findet man Viren(-Namen) seit 1993.

In dem Artikel wird immer wieder auf CARO (Computer Antivirus Researcher's Organization) verwiesen. Diese Organisation scheint so etwas wie die Registrierungs- und Namensgebungs-Stelle für Computer-Viren zu sein. Allerdings konnte ich keinen Link zu dieser Organisation finden.

Bei "CNET" findet man einen Artikel, dem man folgenden Hinweis entnehmen kann:

...
They follow what's called the "Computer Antivirus Researcher's Organization" ("CARO") naming convention, first adopted in 1991. The CARO naming convention was created by virus researchers Fridrik Skulason, Alan Solomon, and Vesselin Bontchev and uses a modular construction. While formal virus names may not always have all the components listed below, the components must be listed in the following order, usually separated by dots.
They are:
Group_Name: This is the original virus's name, sometimes found within the viral code.
Major_Variant: This designates a virus variant that is clearly distinct from other strains. It is often designated by a letter. For example, the worm LoveLetter is distinct from LoveLetter.A, LoveLetter.B, and LoveLetter.C.
Minor_Variant: This component designates a slight difference between viruses. It is sometimes a number that indicates the file size of the virus. For example, FunLove.4099 is a virus that is 4,099KB.
Some antivirus vendors have modified the CARO convention to include a prefix that identifies platform (W32 for Windows 32-bit systems, Linux, Mac) and a suffix (@mm) that identifies it as a mass mailer. Thus, a virus named W32.Klez.H@mm is the eighth variant of the Klez family, affects 32-bit Windows systems, and happens to be a mass mailer as well.

Und bei "Virus Bulletin" findet man eine Datenbank, in der die unterschiedlichen Namen für die selben Computer-Viren gesammelt und gegenübergestellt werden. Die Anbiterfirmen scheinen jedoch nicht allzu mitteilsam zu sein; bei vielen Einträgen erscheint noch "[undetected]". (Geben Sie z.B. "ABC" in das Suchfeld ein.)
Berücksichtigt werden dabei die Bezeichnungen verschiedener Hersteller von Anti-Viren-Software.


Search by Vendor: Any | ALWIL | H+BEDV | GRISoft | Kaspersky Lab | SOFTWIN | Dialogue Science | Frisk Software | McAfee | IKARUS | MKS | Symantec | ESET | Norman | Panda | Trend Micro | GeCAD RAV | Sophos | CA VET | CA InoculateIT | VirusBuster


Anyone who has had any experience of the anti-virus world will know that a single virus can have several different names - anti-virus vendors are not obliged to conform to any naming conventions, nor do they tend to do so.

VGrep is a system designed to help clear up some of the confusion surrounding the naming of viruses. It works by running scanners across a large collection of virus-infected files, and parsing their output into a simple text database.
