New Botnet With Pictures
The Storm worm was very active over Christmas and new year, which has strengthened their bot network, which we believe could potentially contain hundreds of thousands of drone machines. This appears to be one of the worst botnets currently working and known.
This doesn’t mean of course that other minor botnets don’t exist, even with only few hundred zombies. And this doesn’t necessarily mean that they can’t be dangerous. DDoS, phishing (see Storm botnet - used during these days to host phishing website) are only two of the possible uses of a botnet. We’ve just isolated a new relatively small botnet. It looks like it has only been open for two days but it’s already well populated. Total zombies are 8919 but number is increasing every hour. New Botnet - With Pictures - Enjoy!
