Abstract

Privacy and avoiding being detected by security systems are both two important features of Botnet whose communication structure affects them directly. In this paper, covert communication protocol based on Covert Timing Channel is presented for Botnet and the capabilities of these types of channels are used for enhancing the features. The proposed Protocol is designed with layered and modular structure which is scalable and flexible. In this project, in addition to developing the usage of these channels in Botnet, the interaction of evaluation criteria in two areas is investigated in a real condition. According to the various traffic Circumstances of systems involved in Botnet, the Emulator Tool is used for implementing a test Environment in real Circumstances and channel evaluation criteria including capacity, robustness and stealthy are evaluated. The results show that in the best traffic condition, the average time is equival to 48. 07 bits per second with robustness factor of 99% and in the worst traffic condition with different types of errors, the capacity is equival to 11. 01 per second with robustness of 85% in proposed Protocol. Conditional Entropy method also shows stealthy of communication in the protocol. The results show the appropriate capability of Covert Timing Channel to supply communication infrastructure in Botnet.
