Cloud Computing Based-Collaborative Network Security Management System Using Botnet

Abstract

Now-a-days due to increase in the users of internet the balancing of traffic in the network becomes most serious issue. Also the internet security is also the important factor in terms of internet worms, spam, phishing attacks and botnet too. Botnet is an internet connected program communicates with other similar program to perform malicious activities and to spread a Distributed Denial of service on the victim computer and also in network. And make that machine or network resource unavailable to its users. The botmaster which hides itself behind a server called Command & control(C & C) Server, and give commands to C & C to attack on the victim hosts and spread bot in the network. In this paper, we design a cloud computing- Based Collaborative Network Security Management System Using Botnet which balances the load in the network and check for each and every file transferring in the cloud for the bot. If that file contains the bot then the folder in which that file is save will be deleted from that client. In this way, we design a system to protect the cloud from botnet and prevent the cloud from botnet attack.
