Multiscale Modeling and Simulation of Worm Effects on the Internet Routing Infrastructure
نویسندگان
چکیده
An unexpected consequence of recent worm attacks on the Internet was that the routing infrastructure showed evidence of increased BGP announcement churn. As worm propagation dynamics are a function of the topology of a very large-scale network, a faithful simulation model must capture salient features at a variety of resolution scales. This paper describes our efforts to model worm propagation and its affect on routers and application traffic. Using our implementations of the Scalable Simulation Framework (SSF) API, we model worm propagation, its affect on the routing infrastructure and its affect on application traffic using multiscale traffic models.

متن کاملA Mixed Abstraction Level Simulation Model of Large-Scale Internet Worm Infestations
Large-scale worm infestations, such as last year’s Code Red, Code Red II, and Nimda, have led to increased interest in modeling these events to assess threat levels, evaluate countermeasures and investigate possible influence on the Internet infrastructure. However, the inherently large scale of these phenomena pose significant challenges for models that include infrastructure detail. We explor...
متن کاملAnalysis of BGP Update Surge during Slammer Worm Attack
Although the Internet routing infrastructure was not a direct target of the January 2003 Slammer worm attack, the worm attack coincided in time with a large, globally observed increase in the number of BGP routing update messages. Our analysis shows that the current global routing protocol BGP allows local connectivity dynamics to propagate globally. As a result, any small number of edge networ...
