Abstract

“ Botnets are networks of compromised computers that are remotely controlled by malicious agents (OECD, 2008a). They are used to send massive quantities of spam e-mail messages, co-ordinate

distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attacks and facilitate financial and identity fraud, among other economically and socially harmful activities. They therefore represent a major problem for security and trust in online environments. Their growth and increased severity would do considerable damage to online commerce, electronic government services and other Internet-based services, as consumers and citizens would become more reluctant to interact and transact online.
