Public Key Cryptosystem Approach for P2P Botnet Detection and Prevention

摘要

Distributed (P2P) botnets have as of late been received by botmasters for their versatility against take-down endeavors. Other than being harder to bring down, p2p botnets tend to be stealthier in the way they perform vindictive exercises, making current discovery approaches ineffectual. In this paper, we simulate our proposal by detecting a gray hole attack in an Ad Hoc network using NS2.The detected malicious node is listed in a black hole list and notices all other nodes in the network to stop communicating with them. Our botnet location framework has been equipped for identifying stealthy P2P botnets (Gray Hole nodes) and can reduce packet loss caused by malicious nodes and have a better packet delivery ratio (PDR) within less period of time.
