Thought funsec may be interested in this ... http://arxiv.org/abs/1007.4938 - An Ising Model Approach to Malware Epidemiology Abstract: We introduce an Ising approach to study the spread of malware. The Ising spins up and down are used to represent two states--online and offline--of the nodes in the network. Malware is allowed to propagate amongst online nodes and the rate of propagation was found to increase with data traffic. For a more efficient network, the spread of infection is much slower; while for a congested network, infection spreads quickly. -- silky Every morning when I wake up, I experience an exquisite joy — the joy of being this signature. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
