eTrust Antivirus Groupware Options User Guide

Using an electronic messaging system is a common way for today’s corporations to communicate. Quite often, the messaging system becomes an essential method for sharing information and documents, both within and outside of the enterprise. Unfortunately, these same systems can have gaps in security that enable infections to rapidly spread through an organization—posing risks to both data and productivity.

According to an International Computer Security Association (ICSA®) survey, email attachments are the most common sources of infections. Macro viruses, worms, and other malicious code can come in through email to slow down and debilitate your system. For example, infectors such as the Winword Concept macro virus and the Melissa virus have become among the fastest spreading viruses in history. According to the ICSA, the well-known LoveLetter virus is a mass-mailer, and therefore has the potential to spread quickly. The virus arrives as a VBS file attached to an email message.

A Self-Learning Worm Using Importance Scanning

INTRODUCTION
A worm attacks vulnerable computer systems and employs self-propagating method to flood the Internet rapidly Worms, such as Code Red [10], Slammer [9], and Witty [17], have infected hundreds of thousands of hosts and become a significant threat to network security and management. It is therefore of great importance for defenders to characterize the spread of worms that employ distinct scanning methods and to study countermeasures accordingly.

Different scanning methods have been employed by previous worms. For instance, Morris worm used topological scanning that relies on the information contained in the victim
host to find new targets. Code Red v2 and Slammer worms employed random scanning that selects targets randomly. Code Red II and Nimda worms exercised localized scanning that preferentially searches for targets on the “local” address space.
