Synopsis
This research talk will comprehensively explore the sophisticated operations inherent in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) botnets.
The discussion will encompass a detailed analysis of the P2P botnets' infrastructure, communication mechanisms, and the fundamental principles that facilitate their decentralized structure.
With a concentrated emphasis on these intricate operational principles, the discussion will pivot towards the innovative adaptation of these mechanisms to formulate a security framework.
Specifically tailored to address the challenges of heterogeneous enterprise networks, this security mechanism leverages the decentralized nature of P2P networks.
The idea is to gain insights into how the proven principles of P2P botnets can be harnessed to fortify the security posture of diverse enterprise environments, providing resilience and adaptability in the face of ever-evolving cyber threats.
