Advice Request Live Fresh Malware-

[eroniko]

Hello everyone!
I want to create a data set for machine learning, i have been looking for some malware samples, becouse i want more samples, and whenever i find anything they are either dead, old, etc... i wanna know where i can find fresh samples, im a member on virussign but the samples seems kinda old, since i always find all of them.

How many do you need?
If you need many really fresh samples, you may want to set up a honey pot.
A smaller set you can hunt one by one, e.g., on hybrid-analysis, any.run, your email inbox.

If you are a student doing research, you might have luck asking Virustotal for free access.
