A botnet is a network of computers or devices that have been compromised by
malware, allowing them to be controlled by a remote attacker known as a
"botmaster". The botnet can then be used to carry out various
malicious activities, such as sending spam, launching distributed
denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, stealing personal information or financial
data, and spreading further malware infections.
The devices in a botnet, often referred to as "zombies" or
"bots", can be any type of internet-connected device, including
computers, smartphones, routers, and IoT devices. These devices are usually
infected with malware through phishing attacks, software vulnerabilities, or by
exploiting weak passwords.
Botnets can be very difficult to detect and shut down, as the botmaster can
control the botnet from a remote location, often using anonymizing techniques
to conceal their identity. Protecting your devices with strong passwords,
keeping your software up to date, and being cautious when opening emails or
clicking on links can help to prevent your devices from becoming part of a
botnet.
