Efficient Detection of Internet Worms Using Data Mining Techniques
نویسنده
چکیده
Internet worms pose a serious threat to computer security.Traditional approaches using signatures to detect worms pose little danger to the zero day attacks. The focus of malware research is shifting from using signature patterns to identifying the malicious behavior displayed by the malwaresThis paper presents a novel idea of extracting variable length instruction sequences that can identify worms from clean programs using data mining techniques.The analysis is facilitated by the program control flow information contained in the instruction sequences. Based upon general statistics gathered from these instruction sequences we formulated the problem as a binary classification problem and built tree based classifiers including C5.0, boosting and random forest. Our approach showed 99.5% detection rate on novel worms whose data was not used in the model building process.
