Is there a way to find the Malware family from the given malware binaries?

Question

I have a huge list of malware binaries from VirusShare website. My problem requires me to have labels of corresponding malware families to which these samples belong. Is there a way?

Well, as far as I know, you can use VirusTotal free API (VirusTotal API) and upload malwares to get the result of the Anti-malwares programs but they are not going to give you the exact family. I am not aware of any public malware family classification and I guess VT is best option you have. (you can only send 4 request per minute I guess)
