The field of information and computer security is rapidly developing in today’s world number of security risks is continuously being explored every day. Botnet detection is an active area of research as no single technique is available that can detect the botnet attack very efficiently. The paper gives the system that can detect botnet activity based on traffic behavior analysis by classifying network traffic behavior using machine learning. Traffic behavior analysis methods do not depend on the packets payload, which means that they can work with encrypted network communication protocols. Network traffic information can usually be easily retrieved from various network devices without affecting significantly network performance or service availability.
