    Mirai is a self-propagating malware that scans the internet for vulnerable IoT devices and infects them to create a botnet. Mirai variants utilize lists of common default credentials to gain access to devices. Mirai's primary use is for launching distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, but it has also been used for cryptocurrency mining.

    This solution utilizes unique local address mechanisms of the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) to defend against these attacks. Index Terms—Internet of Things, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS), botnets, IPV6 unique local address, security threat, critical infrastructure and services, security features, malicious software, Mirai botnet.

  • web:arxiv.org

    Abstract—Mirai is undoubtedly one of the most significant Internet of Things (IoT) botnet attacks in history. In terms of its detrimental effects, seamless spread, and low detection rate, it surpassed its predecessors. Its developers released the source code, which triggered the development of several variants that combined the old code with newer vulnerabilities found on popular IoT devices ...

    Mirai is a malware botnet that infects Internet of Things (IoT) devices using default or weak login credentials. Once infected, these devices are controlled by a command-and-control (CnC) server and can be used to launch DDoS attacks. This repo is a fork of the original leaked source code and includes components such as: The bot (runs on IoT devices) The CnC server The loader (infects devices ...
