Originally designed as neutral entities, computerized bots are increasingly being used maliciously by online criminals in mass spamming events, fraud, extortion, identity theft, and software theft. Malicious Bots: An Inside Look into the Cyber-Criminal Underground of the Internet explores the rise of dangerous bots and exposes the nefarious methods of "botmasters". This valuable resource assists information security managers in understanding the scope, sophistication, and criminal uses of bots. With sufficient technical detail to empower IT professionals, this volume provides in-depth coverage of the top bot attacks against financial and government networks over the last several years. The book presents exclusive details of the operation of the notorious Thr34t Krew, one of the most malicious bot herder groups in recent history. Largely unidentified by anti-virus companies, their bots spread globally for months, launching massive distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks and warez (stolen software distributions). For the first time, this story is publicly revealed, showing how the botherders got arrested, along with details on other bots in the world today. Unique descriptions of the criminal marketplace - how criminals make money off of your computer - are also a focus of this exclusive book! With unprecedented detail, the book goes on to explain step-by-step how a hacker launches a botnet attack, providing specifics that only those entrenched in the cyber-crime investigation world could possibly offer. Authors Ken Dunham and Jim Melnick serve on the front line of critical cyber-attacks and countermeasures as experts in the deployment of geopolitical and technical bots. Their work involves advising upper-level government officials and executives who control some of the largest networks in the world. By examining the methods of Internet predators, information security managers will be better able to proactively protect their own networks from such attacks.

Bots – automated software applications programmed to perform tasks online – have become a feature of our everyday lives, from helping us navigate online systems to assisting us with online shopping. Yet, despite enabling internet users, bots are increasingly associated with disinformation and concerning political intervention. In this ground-breaking book, Monaco and Woolley offer the first comprehensive overview of the history of bots, tracing their varied applications throughout the past sixty years and bringing to light the astounding influence these computer programs have had on how humans understand reality, communicate with each other, and wield power. Drawing upon the authors' decade of experience in the field, this book examines the role bots play in politics, social life, business, and artificial intelligence. Despite bots being a fundamental part of the web since the early 1990s, the authors reveal how the socially oriented ones continue to play an integral role in online communication globally, especially as our daily lives become increasingly automated. This timely book is essential reading for students and scholars in Media and Communication Studies, Sociology, Politics, and Computer Science, as well as general readers with an interest in technology and public affairs.

This book provides a holistic overview of current state of the art and practice in malware research as well as the challenges of malware research from multiple angles. It also provides step-by-step guides in various practical problems, such as unpacking real-world malware and dissecting it to collect and perform a forensic analysis. Similarly, it includes a guide on how to apply state-of-the-art Machine Learning methods to classify malware. Acknowledging that the latter is a serious trend in malware, one part of the book is devoted to providing the reader with the state-of-the-art in Machine Learning methods in malware classification, highlighting the different approaches that are used for, e.g., mobile malware samples and introducing the reader to the challenges that are faced when shifting from a lab to production environment. Modern malware is fueling a worldwide underground economy. The research for this book is backed by theoretical models that simulate how malware propagates and how the spread could be mitigated. The necessary mathematical foundations and probabilistic theoretical models are introduced, and practical results are demonstrated to showcase the efficacy of such models in detecting and countering malware. It presents an outline of the methods that malware authors use to evade detection. This book also provides a thorough overview of the ecosystem, its dynamics and the geopolitical implications are introduced. The latter are complemented by a legal perspective from the African legislative efforts, to allow the reader to understand the human and social impact of malware. This book is designed mainly for researchers and advanced-level computer science students trying to understand the current landscape in malware, as well as applying artificial intelligence and machine learning in malware detection and classification. Professionals who are searching for a perspective to streamline the challenges that arise, when bringing lab solutions into a production environment, and how to timely identify ransomware signals at scale will also want to purchase this book. Beyond data protection experts, who would like to understand how malware siphons private information, experts from law enforcement authorities and the judiciary system, who want to keep up with the recent developments will find this book valuable as well.

This book is for system administrators and security professionals who need to bring now ubiquitous IM and P2P applications under their control. Many businesses are now taking advantage of the speed and efficiency offered by both IM and P2P applications, yet are completely ill-equipped to deal with the management and security ramifications. These companies are now finding out the hard way that these applications which have infiltrated their networks are now the prime targets for malicious network traffic. This book will provide specific information for IT professionals to protect themselves from these vulnerabilities at both the network and application layers by identifying and blocking this malicious traffic.* A recent study by the Yankee group ranked "managing and securing IM and P2P applications" as the #3 priority for IT managers in 2004* The recently updated SANS/FBI top 10 list of vulnerabilities for computers running Microsoft Windows contained both P2P and IM applications for the first time* The recently released Symantec Threat Assessment report for the first half of 2004 showed that 19 of the top 50 virus threats targeted IM or P2P applications. Despite the prevalence of IM and P2P applications on corporate networks and the risks they pose, there are no other books covering these topics
