Abstract

Analogies with biological disease with topological considerations added, which show that the spread of computer viruses can be contained, and the resulting epidemiological model are examined. The findings of computer virus epidemiology show that computer viruses are far less rife than many have claimed, that many fail to thrive, that even successful viruses spread at nowhere near the exponential rate that some have claimed, and that centralized reporting and response within an organization is an extremely effective defense. A case study is presented, and some steps for companies to take are suggested
