Abstract

Cybercrime has emerged as a major social problem. Especially, widely distributed bots are being used as a main tool for conducting cybercrime. Therefore, the needs for enhanced incident handling have increased to detect, analyze and respond to bots and botnets. DNS-Sinkhole is known as the most effective way to respond to bot activity. Incident handling is a very complex set of security activities including technical and managerial part. Especially, the concept of incident handling is higher than DNS-Sinkhole technique which only focuses on the technical part. Therefore, additional studies to integrate incident handling with DNS-Sinkhole technique are required. We propose systematic approach for comprehensive incident handling focused on the bot response. In particular, we propose comprehensive incident handling methodology based on DNS-Sinkhole technique, and practical incident handling framework for central incident handling team.
