Fast-Flux Service Networks: Architecture, Characteristics, and Detection Mechanisms
سنة النشر: 2023
Fast-flux service networks (FFSNs) continue to be one of the major problems in today’s Internet. It is a mechanism botherders commonly use to provide highly resilient service for their malicious servers while remaining hidden from direct access. This is achieved by configuring many botnet machines to work as proxies that relay traffic between end users and malicious servers controlled by botherders. FFSNs are becoming popular for hosting malicious services and illegal content such as drug and pharmaceutical products, malware, and botnets command and control servers. FFSNs represent a challenging issue due to their simple yet powerful concealment of malicious network services. This book chapter comprehensively discusses FFSNs, focusing on fast-flux architecture, operation, and characterization. Also, it provides a review of fast-flux detection mechanisms and highlights the main challenges and future research directions.
