Abstract
One of the most dangerous threats to computer networks is the use of botnets, which can seriously harm systems and steal private data. They are remote-controlled networks of compromised computers that an individual or group of individuals is using for malicious purposes. These infected computers are frequently called “bots” or “zombies”. A wide variety of malicious activities, including the distribution of malware and credential theft, can be carried out using botnets. The CTU-13 dataset is a collection of network traffic information that includes examples of various botnet types. Using this, our study compares the abilities of decision trees, random forests, 1D convolutional neural networks, and a proposed system based on long short-term memory and residual neural networks to detect botnets. According to our findings, the suggested system performs better than every other algorithm, achieving a higher accuracy rate. Our suggested system has the ability to precisely identify botnet traffic patterns, which can assist organisations in proactively preventing botnet attacks.
