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?.

CIPA: A collaborative intrusion prevention architecture for programmable network and SDN

TL;DR: A novel collaborative intrusion prevention architecture, CIPA, aiming at confronting such coordinated intrusion behavior, is proposed, deployed as a virtual network of an artificial neural net over the substrate of networks.

Flow-based anomaly intrusion detection system using two neural network stages

TL;DR: An intrusion detection system using two neural network stages based on flow-data is proposed for detecting and classifying attacks in network traffic, and the designed models are promising in terms of accuracy and computational time.

Does trusted computing remedy computer security problems

R. Oppliger, +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that although trusted computing has some merits, it neither provides a complete remedy nor is it likely to prevail in the PC mass market.

Resilient self-organizing overlay networks for security update delivery

TL;DR: Experimental measurements of a prototype implementation of Revere gathered using a large-scale-oriented approach suggest that Revere can deliver security updates at the required scale, speed and resiliency for a reasonable cost.

Anomaly Detection in SCADA Systems - A Network Based Approach

TL;DR: This work provides the first comprehensive analysis of real-world SCADA traffic, and proposes PeriodAnalyzer, an approach that uses deep packet inspection to automatically identify the different messages and the frequency at which they are issued and can be used to detect data injection and Denial of Service attacks.

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.
