A typical botnet launch pad<br />
Botmasters launch attacks in a way that they cannot be found easily. Bots are available<br />
for rent. And when you rent, you get a control panel similar to one shown in the<br />
diagram above. You can simply attack a chosen site using attack parameters available<br />
to you.<br />
What's common among the botnet attack packets<br />
Botnet attacks are scripted. Despite the botnet script writers' intelligence, there is a<br />
trail that is left behind in the attacks in terms of common parameters. These common<br />
parameters can be observed in a hardware logic based system such as a Forti<strong>DDoS</strong><br />
device. These common parameters are usually visible in the application layer headers.<br />
