TLDR
The Slammer worm spread so quickly that human response was ineffective, and why was it so effective and what new challenges do this new breed of worm pose?Abstract:
The Slammer worm spread so quickly that human response was ineffective. In January 2003, it packed a benign payload, but its disruptive capacity was surprising. Why was it so effective and what new challenges do this new breed of worm pose?.read more

Biological Aspects of Computer Virology
TL;DR: In this paper, the decisive factors that affect the propagation of a worm and evaluate their effectiveness are discussed and discussed in detail, and the effectiveness of these factors is evaluated in the context of malware epidemics.

Detecting Security Attacks in Trusted Virtual Domains
TL;DR: The aim in this paper is to consider the design choices and develop an intrusion detection architecture that would enable efficient detection and prevention of different types of attacks in such a TVD based distributed environments.

A Robust Control Framework for Malware Filtering
TL;DR: A dynamic feedback filter is derived and shown via numerical analysis to be an improvement over various heuristic approaches to malware filtering and demonstrated with packet level simulations on the Ns-2 network simulator.

Characterising heterogeneity in vulnerable hosts on worm propagation
Zesheng Chen,Chao Chen +1 more
TL;DR: This work analytically and empirically study the impact of heterogeneity of vulnerable hosts on worm propagation, and proposes a novel model to predict and characterise worm dynamics among heterogeneous vulnerable hosts.

Inferring internet denial-of-service activity
TL;DR: This article presents a new technique, called “backscatter analysis,” that provides a conservative estimate of worldwide denial-of-service activity, and believes it is the first to provide quantitative estimates of Internet-wide denial- of- service activity.

How to Own the Internet in Your Spare Time
TL;DR: This work develops and evaluates several new, highly virulent possible techniques: hit-list scanning, permutation scanning, self-coordinating scanning, and use of Internet-sized hit-lists (which creates a flash worm).

Code-Red: a case study on the spread and victims of an internet worm
TL;DR: The experience of the Code-Red worm demonstrates that wide-spread vulnerabilities in Internet hosts can be exploited quickly and dramatically, and that techniques other than host patching are required to mitigate Internet worms.

Internet quarantine: requirements for containing self-propagating code
TL;DR: The design space of worm containment systems is described using three key parameters - reaction time, containment strategy and deployment scenario - and the lower bounds that any such system must exceed to be useful today are demonstrated.

Inferring Internet denial-of-service activity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new technique, called backscatter analysis, that provides a conservative estimate of worldwide denial-of-service activity, and quantitatively assess the number, duration and focus of attacks, and qualitatively characterize their behavior.
