Abstract

“ Lest you think all of the DDoS bots we focus on come only from China, we found one that appears to be from the US. We’re calling this bot “Skunkx”. We have not yet seen the bot’s attacks in the wild, however, and so we do not know its favored victim profiles. We also do not know how big this botnet is at this time.
