Stochastic Modeling of Worm Propagation in Trusted Networks

چکیده
Abstract There are two types of models useful in the study of worm propagation for a given number of terminals in a trusted network i.e. deterministic and stochastic model. The deterministic models, also known as compartmental models are in the form of epidemic models. These epidemic models consist of different states called compartments so these models are also known as compartmental models. A closed (no inflow and outflow) donor control based compartmental model can be converted in to the stochastic model which is more realistic and also enables us to compute the transition probability from one state to other state. In this paper authors have presented a method for stochastic modeling of worm or virus propagation in trusted networks.

Modeling Framework for the Study and Analysis of Mobile Attack Propagation in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks
Independent-operating attacks in modern communication networks have become increasingly popular, affecting significantly the performance of these networks and causing major systems to fail. In this paper, we introduce and design a modeling framework that allows for the study and analysis of mobile attack propagation in wireless ad-hoc networks. Specifically, we study probabilistically the propa...

متن کاملActive Worm Propagation Modeling in Unstructured P2P Networks
Nowadays, the security of P2P networks is alarming ascribing to worms which propagate by exploiting common vulnerabilities in P2P software. Taking account of the topology of P2P networks and the behavior of worms, this paper models the propagation of active worms in unstructured P2P networks. Simulations indicate that propagation of worms in P2P networks is much faster than that in un-P2P netwo...
متن کاملToward early warning against Internet worms based on critical-sized networks
In this paper, we build on a recent worm propagation stochastic model, in which random effects during worm spreading were modeled by means of a stochastic differential equation. On the basis of this model, we introduce the notion of the critical size of a network, which is the least size of a network that needs to be monitored, in order to correctly project the behavior of a worm in substantial...
