Slammer worm seminar report, abstract

Slammer worm, an introduction
The Slammer worm is a virus in computer system. It moves from one program to another while one is attaching different files. These programs are the malicious programs rather than beneficial ones. These worms replicated each other however they do not infect the programs already in the system. They hog up the memory and clog the network. They are usually seen on networks and also on multiprocessing operating system. The Trojon Horse acts as a delivery for these Slammer worms. These worms are also called Sapphire (Sapphire worm). They are the fastest worms which have even been seen in the history of computer worms. They create copies of themselves which again make copies of themselves.

Within a span of 10 minutes they replicate and infect the 90% of the host. These slammer worms randomly select the IP address and infect them. They clog the networks causing disruptions in the financial institutions, banking sectors, education sectors, transportation etc. In order to get protected from the worms it is important to take great protection as they cause lots of distraction to work. It has been seen that how much protection is there even a small error in the firewall or decryption might lead to the entry of the slammer worm.
