Investigating the impact of real-world factors on internet worm propagation

摘要: This paper reports the results of our experimentation with modeling worm behavior on a large scale, fully adaptable network simulator. Our experiments focused areas scanning methods, IP address structure, and wireless links that, to best knowledge, have been mostly neglected or abstracted away in prior simulations. Namely, intent was first study by direct observation simulations effects various techniques effectiveness spread. Second, research that having larger space (specifically sparsely populated like provided Internet Protocol Version 6) would several worms. Third, we how media may affect propagation In order perform these made use Georgia Institute Technology's simulator, GTNetS, extending classes packaged
