Chinese Botnet As-A-Service Bypasses Cloudflare & Other DDoS Protection Services

A large botnet-as-a-service network originating from China was discovered, which comprises numerous domains, over 20 active Telegram groups, and utilizes other domestic communication channels.  The infrastructure that supports this botnet, located in China, raises concerns about the potential for large-scale, coordinated attacks. Botnets are collections of compromised devices that attackers can remotely control.  The attackers can then use the botnet’s combined processing power to disrupt operations, steal data, or launch denial-of-service attacks that overwhelm targeted systems with traffic, rendering them inaccessible to legitimate users.
