Botnets and their detection techniques

2020 International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC), 2020
Botnet 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.

SHIELDNET: An Adaptive Detection Mechanism against Vehicular Botnets in VANETs

IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference, 2019
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are designed to provide traffic safety by enabling vehicles to broadcast information-such as speed, location and heading-through inter-vehicular communications to proactively avoid collisions.

Botnets

2014
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

Botnets

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.

An Analysis of Botnet Models

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 ...

Botnet and P2P Botnet Detection Strategies: A Review

2018 International Conference on Communication and Signal Processing (ICCSP), 2018
Among various network attacks, botnet led attacks are considered as the most serious threats. A botnet, i.e., the network of compromised computers is able to perform large scale illegal activities such as Distributed Denial of Service attacks, click fraud, bitcoin mining etc. These attacks are considered as the major concern now-a-days.

Detecting and destroying botnets

Network Security, 2016
Due to their limitless size and capacity, botnets are among the most powerful components of a modern cyber-criminal's arsenal of attack techniques. They are made up of compromised workstations distributed over the public Internet that leverage the untapped processing power of a multitude of endpoints, usually to accomplish a malicious agenda.
