Inside the Slammer worm

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?.

Exposing Internet Address Use to Enhance Network Security

TL;DR: The central premise of this thesis is that the more addresses of vulnerable Internet systems known to an attacker, the easier it is for that attacker to spread malicious activity.

Correlation based analysis of spreading Codered worms

TL;DR: A correlation based method is proposed and applied in the analysis and results indicate that the spreading worms could cause dramatic changes in the flow size distribution.

Principal Components of Port-Address Matrices in Port-Scan Analysis

TL;DR: This paper proposes two new methods for reducing the traffic data to a simplified form comprising significant components of smaller dimensionality and gives a scatter plot for the sensors, which helps to detect abnormal behavior in both the source address space and the destination port space.

Evaluate Security on the Internet Cafe

TL;DR: Internet security (Network security) is a big topic that is very important in the authors' society communication system, but it is extremely dynamic and wide in scope.

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.
