摘要: Encrypted botnets have seen an increasing use in recent years. To enable research detecting encrypted researchers need samples of botnet traces with ground truth, which are very hard to get. Traces that available not customizable, prevents testing under various controlled scenarios. address this problem we introduce BotTalker, a tool can be used generate customized communication traffic. BotTalker emulates the actions bot would take encrypt communication. It includes highly configurable encrypted-traffic converter along real, non-encrypted and background The is able convert into ones by providing customization three dimensions: (a) selection real encryption algorithm, (b) flow or packet level conversion, SSL emulation (c) IP substitution. best our knowledge, first work provides users In paper also apply evaluate damage result from traffic on widely detection system - BotHunter two IDS' Snort Suricata. results show foils these systems.
