On the Adaptive Real-Time Detection of Fast-Propagating Network Worms

We present two light-weight worm detection algorithms thatoffer significant advantages over fixed-threshold methods.The first algorithm, RBS (rate-based sequential hypothesis testing)aims at the large class of worms that attempts to quickly propagate, thusexhibiting abnormal levels of the rate at wh...
