Cyber Network Resilience against Self-Propagating Malware Attacks. (arXiv:2206.13594v1 [cs.CR])

Self-propagating malware (SPM) has led to huge financial losses, major data
breaches, and widespread service disruptions in recent years. In this paper, we
explore the problem of developing cyber resilient systems capable of mitigating
the spread of SPM attacks. We begin with an in-depth study of a well-known
self-propagating malware, WannaCry, and present a compartmental model called
SIIDR that accurately captures the behavior observed in real-world attack
traces. Next, we investigate ten cyber defense techniques, including existing
edge and node …
