CME Web Site Moved to Archive Status

CME was a community effort developed to address the pandemic model of malware in which CME identifiers were assigned to high-profile threats. The changed nature of the malware threat since late 2006-away from pandemic, widespread threats to more localized, targeted threats-greatly reduced the need for common malware identifiers to mitigate user confusion in the general public. The CME Web site and CME List have therefore been moved to archive status and all CME-related efforts have transitioned into support to the "DHS/DoD Software Assurance Forum Malware Working Group." A more detailed explanation is available on the homepage. Comments or concerns may be addressed to cme@mitre.org.
