Botnets targeting enterprises and they are lean & mean

This post at Damballa Botnet Size within the Enterprise highlights few important points about botnets in the enterprise

- Less than 100 member botnets are 57% of botnet population & these may be targeting specific enterprises or verticals

- Probably more professionally managed specifically targeting corporate systems & data within the target enterprise.

- Maybe the work of employees backdooring critical systems for comforts of remote management bypassing security policies but these are made out DIY malware construction kits.Hence providing a parallel path for the DIY kit providers to access those critical systems.
