POSTER: A Lightweight Unknown HTTP Botnets Detecting and Characterizing System
CCS '14: Proceedings of the 2014 ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security

The ability of the HTTP protocol to bypass Firewalls and IDSs has resulted in it becoming the most popular command and control (C&C) protocol adopted for use by most current botnets. To date, most botnet detection approaches either operate at packet-...
Effective bot host detection based on network failure models

Botnet is one of the most notorious threats to Internet users. Attackers intrude into a large group of computers, install remote-controllable software, and then ask the compromised computers to launch large-scale Internet attacks, including sending spam ...
A fuzzy pattern-based filtering algorithm for botnet detection

Botnet has become a popular technique for deploying Internet crimes. Although signature-based bot detection techniques are accurate, they could be useless when bot variants are encountered. Therefore, behavior-based detection techniques become ...
