Abstract

Now a day internet users are increased drastically and malicious activities through internet have also been increased HTTP-based is one of the latest technology of botnet. It uses the HTTP protocol to make normal web traffic and passes the network security systems. Furthermore, HTTP protocol is normally used by normal applications and services on the web, so to detect the HTTP botnets having a low rate of false alarms has become a challenge. In this paper, we propose a detection approach to improve the HTTP-based botnet detection according the rate of false alarms and detect HTTP bots using different characteristics. The experimental result shows that the proposed method is able to reduce the false alarm rates in HTTP-based botnet detection successfully.
