Abstract
With the spread of the Internet, the increase of damage caused by malware has become a worldwide problem. Malicious persons attack computer systems by focusing on their some vulnerabilities called security holes in order to install malware. Especially, a zero-day attack is a serious problem that tries to attack through a certain security hole before the treatment against it. So, the visualization of network traffic is very important in order to find out such attacks. In this paper, the authors propose a visualization system called PacketVisualization of darknet data using Treemap layout algorithm and its extended version using Edge Bundling for analysis of such attacks and shows some visualization examples.
