Although many researchers have analyzed such worms, there are few studies that consider worm propagation via mailing lists. In this paper, we present a mass-mailing type worm propagation model including the mailing list effect on the propagation. We study its propagation by simulation with a real e¬mail social network model. We show that the impact of the mailing list on the mass-mail worm propagation is significant, even if the mailing list is not large. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {2}, number = {10}, year = {2008}, pages = {3644 - 3650}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/2167}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/22}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 22, 2008}, }
