Abstract

The defining characteristic of botnets is the use of command and control channels through which they can be updated and directed. Recently malicious botnets evolve into HTTP botnets out of typical IRC botnets. Data mining algorithms allow us to automate detecting characteristics from large amount of data, which the conventional heuristics and signature based methods could not apply.

Keywords

Botnet, botnet detection, HTTP Botnet, Data Mining.
