Botnet malware, which infects Internet-connected devices and seizes control for a remote botmaster, is a long-standing threat to Internet-connected users and systems. Botnets are used to conduct DDoS attacks, distributed computing (e.g., mining bitcoins), spread electronic spam and malware, conduct cyberwarfare, conduct click-fraud scams, and steal personal user information. Current approaches to the detection and classification of botnet malware include syntactic, or signature-based, and semantic, or context-based, detection techniques. Both methods have shortcomings and botnets remain a persistent threat. In this paper, we propose a method of botnet detection using Nonparametric Bayesian Methods. |
