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

A User Habit Based Approach to Detect and Quarantine Worms
TL;DR: The patterns of user-habit are constructed and a new approach for the early warning of worms is proposed and a better quarantine strategy is proposed to insure the normal access of user.

Characterizing Internet worm spatial-temporal infection structures
TL;DR: To characterize spatial-temporal infection structures of Internet worms, and apply the observations to study P2P-based botnets formed by worm infection, probabilistic modeling methods and a sequential growth model are applied.

Adversarial Degradation of the Availability of Routing Infrastructures and Other Internet-Scale Distributed Systems
TL;DR: This dissertation aims to provide a history of web exceptionalism from 1989 to 2002, a period chosen in order to explore its roots as well as specific cases up to and including the year in which descriptions of “Web 2.0” began to circulate.
Quality of service (qos) provisioning in the internet using flow estimation
TL;DR: The main goal of this thesis is to investigate flow estimation based approach for better QoS support in the Internet by proposing a flow estimation scheme, called Hash-based Two-level Caching (HaTCh), to accurately estimate the number of active connections and proposing a new AQM scheme based on the flow estimation technique.
Dissertation
Botnet detection : a numerical and heuristic analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an anomaly-based botnet detection system for detecting polymorphic botnets, which are impossible to identify by simple signature-based systems such as signatures.

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.
