Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The progress of Internet technology during the past three decades has led to a sea change in the way data has been transferred and information exchange takes place. Over the years coupled with technological development and need, Internet technology has grown, offering numerous functionalities and facilities. The growth of Internet technology has thrown severe challenges in the form of the requirement for a suitable cyber defense system to safeguard the valuable information stored on the system and for information in transit. Towards this goal, it makes us necessary to study and understand the different types of worms and develop mathematical models to represent their behavior. Worms behave like infectious diseases and are epidemic in nature. A computer worm is a self-contained program that is able to spread functional copies of itself or its segment to other computer systems without depending on another program to host its code. The model's ability to predict the worm's behavior depends greatly on the assumptions made in the modeling process. The mathematical models will be generalized to represent the behavior of numerous other worms. The generalized model will be incorporated into a cyber defense system to proactively safeguard the information and information interchange. E-Mail is one of the core media to exchange e-messages for better communication and connectivity but it is also a good medium to send worms to interconnected networks. By clicking incidentally or wrongly an attachment of a malicious executable file, the system may be infected. Here the user's awareness is necessary to avoid such types of attacks.

Download or read book High Fidelity Modeling of Computer Network Worms written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract modeling, such as using epidemic models, has been the general method of choice for understanding and analyzing the high-level effects of worms. However, high-fidelity models, such as packet-level models, are indispensable for moving beyond aggregate effects, to capture finer nuances and complexities associated with known and future worms in realistic network environments. Here, we first identify the spectrum of available alternatives for worm modeling, and classify them according to their scalability and fidelity. Among them, we focus on three high-fidelity methods for modeling of worms, and study their effectiveness with respect to scalability. Employing these methods, we are then able to, respectively, achieve some of the largest packet-level simulations of worm models to date; implant and attack actual worm monitoring/defense installations inside large simulated networks; and identify a workaround for real-time requirement that fundamentally constrains worm modeling at the highest fidelity levels.

Download or read book On Countermeasures of Worm Attacks Over the Internet written by Wei Yu and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worm attacks have always been considered dangerous threats to the Internet since they can infect a large number of computers and consequently cause large-scale service disruptions and damage. Thus, research on modeling worm attacks, and defenses against them, have become vital to the field of computer and network security. This dissertation intends to systematically study two classes of countermeasures against worm attacks, known as traffic-based countermeasure and non-traffic based countermeasure. Traffic-based countermeasures are those whose means are limited to monitoring, collecting, and analyzing the traffic generated by worm attacks. Non-traffic based countermeasures do not have such limitations. For the traffic-based countermeasures, we first consider the worm attack that adopts feedback loop-control mechanisms which make its overall propagation traffic behavior similar to background non-worm traffic and circumvent the detection. We also develop a novel spectrumbased scheme to achieve highly effective detection performance against such attacks. We then consider worm attacks that perform probing traffic in a stealthy manner to obtain the location infrastructure of a defense system and introduce an information-theoretic based framework to obtain the limitations of such attacks and develop corresponding countermeasures. For the non-traffic based countermeasures, we first consider new unseen worm attacks and develop the countermeasure based on mining the dynamic signature of worm programs0́9 run-time execution. We then consider a generic worm attack that dynamically changes its propagation patterns and develops integrated countermeasures based on the attacker's contradicted objectives. Lastly, we consider the real-world system setting with multiple incoming worm attacks that collaborate by sharing the history of their interactions with the defender and develop a generic countermeasure based on establishing the defender's reputation of toughness in its repeated interactions with multiple incoming attackers to optimize the long-term defense performance. This dissertation research has broad impacts on Internet worm research since this work is fundamental, practical and extensible. Our developed framework can be used by researchers to understand key features of other forms of new worm attacks and develop countermeasures against them.
Download or read book Automatic Defense Against Zero day Polymorphic Worms in Communication Networks written by Mohssen Mohammed and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Able to propagate quickly and change their payload with each infection, polymorphic worms have been able to evade even the most advanced intrusion detection systems (IDS). And, because zero-day worms require only seconds to launch flooding attacks on your servers, using traditional methods such as manually creating and storing signatures to defend against these threats is just too slow. Bringing together critical knowledge and research on the subject, Automatic Defense Against Zero-day Polymorphic Worms in Communication Networks details a new approach for generating automated signatures for unknown polymorphic worms. It presents experimental results on a new method for polymorphic worm detection and examines experimental implementation of signature-generation algorithms and double-honeynet systems. If you need some background, the book includes an overview of the fundamental terms and concepts in network security, including the various security models. Clearing up the misconceptions about the value of honeypots, it explains how they can be useful in securing your networks, and identifies open-source tools you can use to create your own honeypot. There’s also a chapter with references to helpful reading resources on automated signature generation systems. The authors describe cutting-edge attack detection approaches and detail new algorithms to help you generate your own automated signatures for polymorphic worms. Explaining how to test the quality of your generated signatures, the text will help you develop the understanding required to effectively protect your communication networks. Coverage includes intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), zero-day polymorphic worm collection methods, double-honeynet system configurations, and the implementation of double-honeynet architectures.
