An automatic Botnet detection and notification system is developed by National Center for High-Performance Computing (NCHC) in Taiwan to efficiently inform users of malware infections on their computers. Due to the involvement with manual work in current notification flow, the notification time may last for 48 to 60 hours. By the aid of our notification system, the infected bot can be notified ...

Botnet ia a collection on network of bots. i.e the collection of zombie computers which are controlled by a single person or group known as bot master or herder. This paper focuses on botnet detection framework and proposed a generic framework for botnet detection. The proposed framework is based on the approach of passively monitoring network traffic. This paer also show the flow chart of Gene...

The results of botnet detection methods are usually presented without any comparison. Although it is generally accepted that more comparisons with third-party methods may help to improve the area, few papers could do it. Among the factors that prevent a comparison are the difficulties to share a dataset, the lack of a good dataset, the absence of a proper description of the methods and the lack...

A botnet is a network of compromised hosts controlled by a single entity, called the botmaster. These compromised hosts can be utilized for malicious activities such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, SPAM, and information extraction such as the extraction of user authentication via key-logging each of which nets profits to the botmaster. Research in the detection of botnets is ex...

They are used to distribute commands to the Bots for malicious activiti...

The botnet is considered as a critical issue of the Internet due to its fast growing mechanism and affect. Recently, Botnets have utilized the DNS and query DNS server just like any legitimate hosts. In this case, it is difficult to distinguish between the legitimate DNS traffic and illegitimate DNS traffic. It is important to build a suitable solution for botnet detection in the DNS traffic an...
