Computer Networks, 2013
Botnets, which are networks formed by malware-compromised machines, have become a serious threat to the Internet. Such networks have been created to conduct large-scale illegal activities, even jeopardizing the operation of private and public services in several countries around the world. Although research on the topic of botnets is relatively new, it

An Advanced Hybrid Peer-to-Peer Botnet
IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing, 2010 A botnet consists of a network of compromised computers controlled by an attacker (botmaster). Recently, botnets have become the root cause of many Internet attacks.

Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 2020
Large botnets made up of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices have been a steady presence in the threat landscape since 2016. Earlier research has found preliminary evidence that the IoT binaries and C&C infrastructure were only seen for very brief periods. It has not explained how attackers maintain control over their botnets.

The 2nd International Conference on Computing and Data Science, 2021
The rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) also generates security threats that cannot be ignored. This paper lists the development history of botnets, introduces representative IoT botnets, and reveals their new characteristics. The botnet mechanism and characteristics of IoT botnets are analyzed in depth from three aspects: composition ...

An efficient botnet detection system for P2P botnet
2016 International Conference on Wireless Communications, Signal Processing and Networking (WiSPNET), 2016Peer-to-Peer (P2P) botnets are exploited by the botmasters for their resiliency against the take down efforts. As the modern botnets are stealthier, the traditional botnet detection approaches are not suitable for the botnet detection. In this paper, an efficient botnet detection system is proposed for detecting the P2P botnet.

Botnets and their detection techniques
2020 International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC), 2020Botnet is considered a dangerous threat that could harm internet users as it makes the compromised host becomes under the control of the botmaster and follow its commands to perform a wide range of malicious activities such as distributed denial of service (DDOS), spamming, identity theft, click fraud, and phishing attacks.

Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective, 2015
Botnets, a network of malware-infected computers, have been used for a range of malicious activities. Evolving from fast fluxing to employing anonymous networks, they have matured and have become exceedingly sophisticated over the years. Understanding and dismantling these networks has become a global effort that requires active research and ...

Recent malicious attempts are intended to get financial benefits through a large pool of compromised hosts, which are called software robots or simply bots. A group of bots, referred to as a botnet, is remotely controllable by a server and can be used for sending spam emails, stealing personal information, and launching DDoS attacks. Growing popularity

Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Security of Information and Networks, 2012
Many different approaches have been used to target Internet security throughout time. It is now easy to realize the attackers' motivational shifts from the early days of lonely, proud-based, virus development to the recent eras of cooperative Internet cyber criminality where high profit and damage became a reality.

Proceedings of the 2019 3rd International Conference on Compute and Data Analysis, 2019
Botnets are a form of cyber threat responsible for massive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, delivery of malicious payloads like ransomware, and dissemination of spam which might be used for phishing. Botnets are closely associated with the Internet of Things (IoT), particularly IoT devices, which when compromised can become part of a ...
