Mackenzie here I work for Aikido. This is a classic example of the security community all playing a part. The very first notice of this was from a developer named Daniel Pereira. He alerted Socket who did the first review of the Malware and discovered 40 packages. After, Aikido discovered an additional 147 packages and the Crowdstrike packages. I'm not sure how Step found it but they were the first to really understand the malware and that it was a self replicating worm. So multiple parties all playing a part kinda independent. Its pretty cool
