Catching Up with Fast Flux


Renowned botnet researcher Jose Nazario of Arbor Networks offers up some interesting new data in a recent blog posting over at CircleID on the fast-flux networks being used to prop up botnet activity. One of the most interesting new angles is that there are actually not that many fast-flux nets in use, but they are apparently being used to generate sizable sums of money by the cyber-criminals using them.

As we all know, fast flux is a method that advanced botnetters have been utilizing heavily over the last few years to try to keep their command and control centers from getting cut off. Through the tactic, botnet masters hide the machines they use for spam generation or malware delivery behind layers of other zombified PCs acting as proxies.
