摘要: Computer worms are a type of malicious malware that prey on networked machines. A number different detection mechanisms have been presented in the literature to detect worms. However, common drawback these is any failure results damaging real This study proposes new approach goes beyond currently available signature and behavior-based approaches. In contrast traditional worm system (WDS) use approaches, our proposed based by damage caused dummy machines rather than The WDS adds additional security as compared used systems allowing conduct their normal behavior host, thus protecting rest network from damage. was designed within setting capable sending receiving files messages between hosts part overall mechanism.
