A Statistical Approach Towards Worm Detection Using Cross-Relation Technique

Computer networks have become an important dimension of modern organizations. Thus, ensuring that networks run at peak performance (network utilization and speed running normal without any faults) is considered a crucial step for these organizations. To achieve this goal, networks must be secure bec...
