ABSTRACT:
Methods of trapping electronic worms are provided. Pursuant to these methods, an electronic worm may be “trapped” such that its ability to spread is reduced or eliminated, while at the same time the worm is deceived such that it does not realize it has been trapped. In this manner, the probability that the worm enacts countermeasures that are harmful to the data and/or equipment of the infected computing devices may be reduced. Corresponding systems of trapping electronic worms are also provided.
