I agree...

For example, you may want to check the date and time your AV detected
the worm on a specific machine and check the username that have been
used (if available) at the time the worm was detected.

Thereafter, check the event viewer security logs and look for that
specific date and time. Check for failures or success login audits.

If you have found the logs matching the date, time and username. Check
the worsktation name and the originating source address from that
logs.
