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

Automatic synthesis of efficient intrusion detection systems on FPGAs
TL;DR: This paper presents a methodology and a tool for automatic synthesis of highly efficient intrusion detection systems using a high-level, graph-based partitioning methodology and tree-based lookahead architectures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling and analysis of gradual hybrid anti-worm
TL;DR: Simulation experiments show that GHAW has dynamical adaptability to changes of network conditions and offers the same level of effectiveness on confronting internet worms as the divide-and-rule hybrid anti-worm, with significantly less cost to network resources.

A Study on Friends Model of a Computer Worm Defense System
Rashid Husain,Mansir Abubakar +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that worms are dangerous to the Internet but there are ways and means to mitigate their ill-effects and models that can automatically respond to a worm outbreak are developed.

Modeling the Co-evololution DNS Worms and Anti-worms in IPv6 Networks
TL;DR: It is shown that by simply delaying the response to DNS queries issued by the worm has little positive effect on the worms propagation, and introduces "honeypot'' domain name servers that attempt to lure worms, introducing only a delay and providing no answer.

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.
