| Abstract | The speed of the spread of Internet worms increased dramatic ally n recent years. Moreover it is certain that it will continue to increase in the near future w ith the increase in available bandwidth and network resources. The fastest known worm (only in literatu re) is the Flash worm, which can infect over a million hosts in less than one second. This paper presents a variant of the Flash worm that we term Compact Flash or CFlash that is capable of spreading even fas ter than its predecessor. We perform a comparative study between the Flash worm and the CFlash worm using a full packet-level simulator, and the results show the increase in propagation rate of the n ew worm given the same set of parameters. |
