Botnet Detection Based on Genetic Neural Network

Botnet have turned into the most serious security dangers on the present Internet framework. A botnet is most extensive and regularly happens in today's cyber-attacks, bringing about the serious risk of our system resources and association's properties. Botnets are accumulations of compromised computers (Bots) which are remotely regulated by its creator (BotMaster) under a typical Command-and-Control (C&C) framework. Botnets cannot just be implemented utilizing existing well-known applications and additionally developed by unknown or inventive applications. This makes the botnet detection a challenging issue. In this paper proposed an anomaly detection model based on genetic neural network system, which joined the significant global searching capability of genetic algorithm with the precise local searching element of back propagation feed forward neural networks to improve the initial weights of neural network.
