An internet-worm early warning system [PDF]
IEEE Global Telecommunications Conference, 2004. GLOBECOM '04., 2005 We propose an Internet-worm early warning system, which integrates a set of novel techniques that automatically detect the concerted scan activity of an on-going worm attack. It is able to issue warning at the early stage of worm propagation and to provide necessary information for security analysts to control the damage.
