| Abstract | Botnets have become one of the most serious security threats to the traditional Internet world. Although the mobile botnets have not yet caused major outbreaks worldwide in cellular network, but most of the traditional botnet experience can be transferred to mobile botnet on mobile devices, so mobile botnet may evolve faster since techniques are already explored. From the theoretical work of some researchers and the reports of security companies, we can see that the mobile botnet attacks and trends are quite real. In this paper, we proposed a SMS based heterogeneous mobile botnet, and shown how SMS based C&C channel structure can be exploited by mobile botnets. At last, we give the analysis of connectivity, security and robustness evaluation of our model. |
