Characterisation of the Kelihos.B Botnet
نویسندگان
چکیده
Botnets like Kelihos.B consist of infected computers that are used for malicious purposes. A large part of the Kelihos.B botnet was sinkholed and the bots in it send all their requests to controlled servers. All those requests are then stored in log files on the servers. These log files are used in this paper to find characteristics about this Kelihos.B botnet. Two types of analyses were conducted to find these characteristics: an overall analysis to find overall characteristics of the botnet and an analysis per time interval to see how the botnet developed over time. For these two analyses multiple fields of the data in the log files were used. These analyses yielded results that provide with a better understanding of the Kelihos.B botnet that can be used in the future when taking countermeasures against similar botnets.
