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

Forensic Acquisition and Analysis of Volatile Data in Memory
TL;DR: This thesis gives a comprehensive overview of fundamental concepts and approaches for seizing as well as examining volatile information and explains how common system compromise and manipulation techniques as they are typically employed by rootkits or other types of intelligent malware can be discovered during memory analysis.

A Modified Two-phase Knowledge Acquisition Algorithm to Construct Worm Knowledge Base
TL;DR: The two-phase knowledge acquisition is modified via adding Hierarchical Grids Relation Adjustment algorithm to adjust hierarchical worm knowledge hierarchy and a worm immune system is implemented here to help users diagnose their vulnerable systems and teach users how to defend threat of worms.

Cellular Network Security
TL;DR: Though great efforts have been made to improve the cellular network in terms of support for new and innovative services, greater number of subscribers, higher speed, and larger bandwidth, very little has been done to update the security of the Cellular network.

Cooperative Automated Worm Response and Detection ImmuNe ALgorithm (CARDINAL) Inspired by T-Cell Immunity and Tolerance
TL;DR: In this article, the role of T-cells within the immune system is to confirm and assess anomalous situations and then either respond to or tolerate the source of the effect, and the authors present the blueprint of a T-cell inspired algorithm for computer security worm detection.

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.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
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.
