Session
Botnets have managed to stay relevant in a number of ways, from the incorporation of phishing in their attack chains to a subscription service model. Their adaptability has proved that botnets indeed still represent an effective way to launch devastating attacks. In this talk, we will present a comprehensive overview of our latest research on new groups, delving into their organizational structures, codebases, and tactics. We will explore how these malicious actors share information, select their targets, and offer their services. By sharing our findings, we hope to raise awareness and facilitate a better understanding of these threats, ultimately contributing to the development of more effective countermeasures.
