With the appearance of a number of e-mail worms in recent years, we urgently need a solution to detect unknown e-mail worms rather than using the traditional solution: signature-based scanning which does not deal with the new e-mail worms well. Our collected data shows that the quantitative trend of e-mail worms is really exploding. In this paper, we propose an e-mail worm Detection System that is based on analysis on human and worm behavior for detecting unknown e-mail worms. Message data such as e-mail or short messages are the result of human behavior. The proposed system detects unknown worms by assessment of behavior in communication because human behavior and worm behavior have different projection on data.
