A Review on IoT Botnet
Hao Zhao, Hui Shu, Ying Xing · The 2nd International Conference on Computing and Data Science · 2021
The rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) also generates security threats that cannot be ignored. This paper lists the development history of botnets, introduces representative IoT botnets, and reveals their new characteristics. The botnet mechanism and characteristics of IoT botnets are analyzed in depth from three aspects: composition structure, life cycle, and attack behavior, and are compared with traditional botnets. Networks for comparison. The analysis discusses the details of IoT botnet technologies such as scanning discovery, covert communication and survival residency. Summarizes the research status of IoT botnet detection technologies and gives future directions. Finally, the importance of preventing IoT botnets and solving IoT security problems is discussed.
