Abstract
Worm analysis report currently produced by anti-virus companies closely resemble those of virus report and do not properly characterize the specific attributes of worms. In this paper, we propose formalized presentation method based on time-based behavioral sequences to more accurately characterize worms. we define a format based on the behavior and communication patterns that occur between an infected host and a target host. we also propose a method for presently worm analysis data with that format. We also compare our framework with analysis data provided by Symantec.
