Self-propagating computer worms have been terrorizing the Internet for the last several years. With the increasing density, inter-connectivity and bandwidth of the Internet combined with security measures that inadequately scale, worms will continue to plague the Internet community. Existing anti-virus and intrusion detection systems are clearly inadequate to defend against many recent fast-spreading worms. In this paper we explore an active counter-attack method - anti-worms. We propose a method that transforms a malicious worm into an anti-worm which disinfects its original. The method is evaluated using the CodeRed, Blaster and Slammer worms. We show through simulation the e#ectiveness of an anti-worm with several propagation schemes and...
