Passive worm have posed serious security threats to the functioning of unstructured P2P networks. A delayed SEIRS epidemic model with death, off line and online rate is constructe...
We analyze the performance of a DHT-based P2P overlay network in resource access and overlay maintenance activities. We use a cross-platform implementation of the protocol called P...
We estimate the number of active machines per hour infected with the Conficker-C worm, using a probability model of Conficker-C's UDP P2P scanning behavior. For an observer wi...
