This work addresses malware diffusion modeling for cybersecurity researchers, but it appears incremental as it focuses on mathematical formulation without new data or empirical validation.

The authors tackled the problem of modeling malware spread via Bluetooth on cellphones by developing a deterministic mathematical model with both recursive and closed-form expressions.

We outline here the mathematical expression of a diffusion model for cellphones malware transmitted through Bluetooth channels. In particular, we provide the deterministic formula underlying the proposed infection model, in its equivalent recursive (simple but computationally heavy) and closed form (more complex but efficiently computable) expression.
