Back in 2009, I started writing a series of articles called “Killing the Beast.” These articles were primarily focused on the command and control (CnC) coordinates of popular spam botnets. These articles not only provided readers greater visibility into these spam botnets, but also served as the basis for two botnet takedowns. So far, four articles under this series have been published. After a long time, I have decided to write the fifth one.
