Neutralizing Peer-to-Peer Botnets
This presentation is a case study on our takedown efforts against state-of-the-art peer-to-peer botnets. Unlike conventional botnets, peer-to-peer botnets are decentralized, and thus cannot be disabled by neutralizing centralized control facilities. Takedowns against peer-to-peer botnets require a highly decentralized approach targeting the infected drones themselves. We describe the technical and ethical challenges we faced in our own takedown attempts.
