Konovalov, I. Kotenko, A. Shorov] To defend oneself against botnet attacks, one must have tools that make it possible to investigate the processes occurring on all stages of the lifecycle of botnets (propagation, control, attack) and possess defense mechanisms that can counteract botnets. A simulation-based approach to the investigation of botnets and the corresponding defense mechanisms is proposed. The simulation is performed using a special software environment developed by the authors. The architecture of this environment and the libraries needed to create models of botnets and defense mechanisms are described. Experimental data demonstrating the capabilities of the simulation environment for studying various stages of the botnet lifecycle and the efficiency of the corresponding defense mechanisms are discussed.
