Bot Monitoring

What is a bot or a botnet?

Malware bots and Internet bots are a type of malware that can be programmed to hack into user accounts, search the Internet for contact information, send spam, or develop other malicious activities. To disguise the origin of such attacks, attackers can also distribute malicious bots through a botnet - that is, a bot network. A botnet consists of a number of devices connected to the Internet and running one or more bots without the knowledge of the respective device owner. Because each device has its own IP address, botnet traffic originates from a variety of IP addresses, making it harder to spot and block its point of origin. Botnets also self-propagate to more devices, which can then send out spam and in turn infect more machines.

If an IP, host name oder username pops up in the Kaduu logs, it means it has been infected with a malicious bot.

Where can you obtain botnet logs in the darknet?

Botnet logs can be obtained in various darknet marketplaces, forums, and websites. These marketplaces and forums are typically used by cybercriminals to buy and sell stolen data, malware, and other illegal goods and services. Some examples include:

It's important to note that access to these sites and marketplaces can be challenging and they are often hidden and may require specific software or knowledge to access them. Additionally, these sites and marketplaces are often taken down by law enforcement, or go offline for other reasons, so the availability of botnet logs on the darknet may vary over time.

It's also important to note that accessing these sites and attempting to purchase botnet logs is illegal in most countries, and could lead to serious consequences such as civil or criminal charges. Additionally, these sites may host malware, so accessing them could also put your device at risk.

What type of devices are more likely to be infected with bots?

Malicious bots, also known as malware bots or botnets, can infect a wide range of devices, including personal computers, servers, and mobile devices. However, certain types of devices and users are more likely to be targeted than others. It is much more unlikely that public servers are infected with bots opposite to private computers. Here are the most exposed device types:

Where is the menu?

There are two search pages:

  1. Bot Record Search: On the bot records search page you can search in a database of indexed stealer bot records. The information is collected from stealer (trojan) logs distributed on hacker forums and marketplaces. This index is different from bot search, as it indexes separate records.
  2. Bot Search: On this page you can search in a database of indexed stealer bot records. The information is collected from stealer (trojan) logs distributed on hacker forums and marketplaces. This index is different from bot record search, as it indexes bots and not separate records.

The syntax for the bot search needs to use our special operators. Lets say you want to find all bots that connect to a URL that contains "sbb", you need to search for url:sbb*. If you only search for sbb, you will get 0 results!

If you want to see the details of the bot records, please click on the IP address. You will the see the path of the file, that lead to the malware infection. More details about the user, the internet history and web calls will be also visible:

Bot Purchase

We offer the possibility to also purchase stealer logs that are discovered in a live search (e.g. https://deepweb.leak.center/forum_search/live_search/). You can send us via Email the purchase request and we will perform the purchase for you. Please note that there is a handling and conversion fee. If the stealer log costs 10 USD, we will charge 20 USD for the purchase since we need to first convert our funds to BTC to perform the purchase. Once we have the logs, we will send them to you and they will disappear in the according forum.
