Monitoring and early warning for internet worms
After the Code Red incident in 2001 and the SQL Slammer in January 2003, it is clear that a simple self-propagating worm can quickly spread across the Internet, infects most vulne...

Polymorphic Worm Detection Using Structural Information of Executables
Abstract. Network worms are malicious programs that spread automatically across networks by exploiting vulnerabilities that affect a large number of hosts. Because of the speed at...

Virtual Playgrounds for Worm Behavior Investigation
To detect and defend against Internet worms, researchers have long hoped to have a safe convenient environment to unleash and run real-world worms for close observation of their in...

Microscopic Simulation of a Group Defense Strategy
We introduce a novel worm containment strategy that integrates two complementary worm quarantine techniques. The two techniques are linked, with one strategy employing the other a...

The effect of DNS delays on worm propagation in an IPv6 Internet
— It is a commonly held belief that IPv6 provides greater security against random-scanning worms by virtue of a very sparse address space. We show that an intelligent worm can ex...

Towards a framework for worm-defense evaluation
Computer worms are a serious problem. Much research has been done to detect and contain worms. One major deficiency in most research is that the claims are supported by theoretic...

Automatically deducing propagation sequences that circumvent a collaborative worm defense
We present an approach to the question of evaluating worm defenses against future, yet unseen and possibly defense-aware worm behavior. Our scheme employs model checking to produc...

On the Effectiveness of Service Registration-Based Worm Defense
— Existing Internet worm research focuses either on worm detection inside an AS, or on prevention of Internet-wide worm epidemic. But of more practical concern is how to repel wo...
