Data Mining Tools for Malware Detection

Presenting theoretical concepts, practical techniques, and experimental results, this book provides a step-by-step illustration of how data mining tools are developed for malware detection. Foscusing on email worms, malicious code, remote exploits, and botnets, the authors describe the step-by-step systems development for each of the four applications. They also discuss experimental and performance results, unique contributions of the system, and the limitations. The appendices include information on data management, data mining, data security, and the design and implementation of data mining tools.
