Abstract

The traditional prevention methods of anti-virus cannot provide a safe network against malicious worms. In this paper, we research on an anti-worm mechanism that actively distributes the anti-worm code to the authorized hosts. We propose a balanced tree based propagation strategy for anti-worm with a mathematic model. By varying the model parameters, the impacts are studied. Some simulation results show us that the new strategy is effective and feasible.
