Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract: With immense use of internet over smartphones, it is being a matter of concern for cyber securityexperts to provide security from ever growing threat of cyber attacks. The motivation of hackers behinddeveloping malware is shifted from joy to a profit earning market. Amongst various forms of malware, mobilebased botnet is emerged as a new threat for cyber security experts. Mobile based botnet attacks are increasingday by day and smartphone users are unaware about the harm it can cause.
