Make It count: An analysis of a brute-forcing botnet
Veronica Valeros 🗣
What does a botnet do when it gets bored? Make every infection second count – even if it means to use the infection time for brute forcing.
This presentation aims to show a complete sandbox infection cycle, which started with a seemingly Gamarue infection and end up with an automated horizontally brute forcing malware and more than 4000 WordPress sites targeted.
By performing an in-deep network traffic analysis of a 15 days network capture, the talk will unveil how this botnet works.
