Modeling and defense against propagation of worms in networks

Worms are widely believed to be one of the most serious challenges in network security research. In order to prevent worms from propagating, we present a microcosmic model, which can benefit the security industry by allowing them to save significant money in the deployment of their security patching schemes

Software similarity and classification

This thesis analyses software programs in the context of their similarity to other software programs. Applications proposed and implemented include detecting malicious software and discovering security vulnerabilities
