Internet Worm Classification and Detection using Data Mining Techniques

Internet worm means separate malware computer programs that repeated itself and in order to spread one computer to another computer. Malware includes computer viruses, worms, root kits, key loggers, Trojan horse, and dialers, adware, malicious, spyware, rogue security software and other malicious programs. It is programmed by attackers to interrupt computer process, gatherDelicate Information, or gain entry to private computer systems. We need to detect a worm on the internet, because it may create network vulnerabilities and also it will reduce the system performance. We can detect the various types of Internet worm the worm like, Port scan worm, Udp worm, http worm, User to Root Worm and Remote to Local Worm. In existing process it is not easy to detect the worm, there is difficult to detect the worm process. In our proposed systems, internet worm is a critical threat in computer networks. Internet worm is fast spreading and self propagating. We need to detect the worm and classify the worm using data mining algorithms. For use data mining, machine learning algorithm like Random Forest, Decision Tree, Bayesian Network we can effectively classify the worm in internet.
