Botnets: Battling the Borg of the Internet Sure, you've heard of bots and botnets. But have you ever actually seen a bot, bot source code, or a bot herder's Command and Control (C&C) center in action? Now you can. In his presentation, network security analyst Corey Nachreiner, CISSP, uncovers what makes bots tick. The talk covers topics both beginning and advanced: · What a "botnet" is · What bot source codes looks like and does · How bot herders control bots via a C&C centers · How a crook might recruit an army of bots · How to render bots powerless on your network During the talk, you’ll see the inner workings of some real-world, malicious bots, found in the wild on underground sites. Learn about the many attacks botnets can launch, and how to defend against them. Since the best way to understand these sophisticated attacks is to see them unfold right before your eyes, Nachreiner will present video captures of bots in action. Once you understand how these evil botnets get built, you’ll have the power to avoid assimilation. Resistance is not futile. |
