Botnet Communication Patterns against Private Cloud
Poster 223
- Cloud computing is an on demand high availability system of computer resources. This could be computing power or storage. Cloud computing is rapidly scalable and can adapt to the nature of its traffic.
- A Botnet is simply a group of computers that follow directions of Command and Control server (C2). These directions could be anything from mining crypto, stealing information, DDOSing, computing, rendering, and even contributing to COVID-19 protein folding research.
- A Distributed Denial Of Service(DDOS) attack is simply just sending a bunch of useless information to victims overloading or more commonly with cloud infrastructure slowing and disrupting services.
