Monitoring the Spread of Active Worms in Internet

Abstract

As far as security is concerned compromised system plays a vital role i.e., system connected with a network and which is used to send spamming, malware, identity theft etc. A System is developed mainly to focus on detection of compromised machines which is already being affected by hacker or cracker and used for anti social activities. We have developed an effective solution for detecting compromised system named SPOT. SPOT uses SPRT (Sequence probability ratio test) which has false positive and false positive error rates. This SPOT is an effective and efficient system in detecting compromised machines in the network. To implement a single remote address corresponds to a malicious scanner which works good in internet environments. The main objective are effectively identifying the spam zombies and Denial of Services attack using SPOT without any botnet spam signatures techniques on the network.
