Constructing IoT Botnets Attack Pattern for Host-based and Network-based Platform

Abstract

Internet of things (IoT) is the things or devices with software, intelligent sensors interconnected via the internet to send and receive data with another device. This capacity makes things, i.e., smartphones, smart homes, intelligent toys, baby monitors, IP cameras, and many more to act as intelligent devices like artificial intelligence (AI) and be utilized in the everyday lifeworld widely. IoT has enormous expansion potential, and many challenges have been acknowledged but are still open today. The botnet is a collection of bots from IoT devices used to launch extensive network attacks. In addition, rapid growth in technology has led to an incomplete understanding of IoT. The increasing number of IoT devices has led to the spread of malware targeting IoT devices make IoT Botnet behaviors challenging to identify and determine. To detect these IoT Botnets, a preliminary experiment on flow analysis is necessary. This paper is to identify IoT Botnet attack patterns from the IoT Botnet behavior that get from IoT Botnet activities. Therefore, this research is to identify IoT Botnet attack patterns in a hostbased and network-based environment. First, this paper contributes to discovering, recognizing, categorizing, and detecting IoT Botnet activities. Next, organizing information to have a better understanding of the IoT botnet's problem and potential solutions. Then, construct the IoT Botnet attack pattern by analyzing the characteristics of the IoT Botnet behavior. This IoT Botnet attack pattern divides into two environments which are host-based and network-based. As a result, this paper aims to inform people about the attack pattern when the IoT device has been infected and become part of the botnet.
