Abstract: So-called worms, viruses, and Trojan horses that attack computer systems are defined. The vehicle that allows these attacks to occur, namely, the open computer internetwork, is examined. The problem of providing protection against attack in an internetwork environment is discussed. The need for professional responsibility on the part of the scientific and engineering community in enforcing strong ethical practices and neither tolerating nor condoning such practices is stressed. >

TL;DR: The need for a better knowledge of Self-Reproducing Programs alias "viruses", Worms, Trojan horses and other destructive things leads to the establishment of a special database relative to them as suggested in the paper entitled "Biological versus Computer Viruses, A better understanding for aBetter defense".
Abstract: The need for a better knowledge of Self-Reproducing Programs (SRP's) alias "viruses", Worms, Trojan horses and other destructive things leads us to propose the establishment of a special database relative to them as suggested in the paper entitled "Biological versus Computer Viruses, A better understanding for a better defense".Such a C-VIRUS database will be useful to notify, describe and store new or known entities in a standard format and will help to discover the means of countering new risks?
