The MAR includes malware descriptions, suggested response actions, and recommended mitigation techniques. Users or administrators should flag activity associated with the malware and report the activity to the NCCIC or the FBI Cyber Watch (CyWatch) and give the activity the highest priority for enhanced mitigation.
