Modelling and defence against malware propagation

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

As the internet has become vital to our day-to-day working and living, we are witnessing a remarkable upsurge in the incidents of malicious software or malware on it. This project aims to develop key technologies that can precisely model the malware propagation on the internet. The technologies will help develop effective defence against malware propagation at an early stage, with limited defence resources, so as to minimise the damage and provide a capability to identify and control malware spreaders. This project is significant as it can secure the internet that is essential to the daily work of Australian people, thus addresses a fundamental problem in safeguarding Australia by protecting our critical infrastructure.
