This chapter discusses in-depth on the challenges of monitoring P2P botnets using a sensor as well as the viable solution to circumvent them. Most of the related work have mentioned that sensors are difficult to be detected due to the passive nature of the sensors. Despite that, in this chapter, three novel sensor detection mechanisms based on graph-theoretic approaches are presented. These proposed detection mechanisms were compared and evaluated by using real world datasets. The results indicate that if the proposed mechanisms are being deployed by botmasters, existing types of sensors are easily detected. To give an upper hand back to the defenders, this chapter also discusses the steps to circumvent the proposed mechanisms. |
