John Kristoff, Northwestern University

John Kristoff is a network engineer in the Telecommunications and Network Services division at Northwestern University. He is primarily interested in TCP/IP-based networks and in particular end-to-end issues, switching/routing, multicast, and network security.
Abstract: Over the past couple of years, critical vulnerabilities in systems software coupled with malware containing IRC-based clients has led to a rising number of compromised hosts that have become part of one or more \'bot\' networks used for spam, DoS attacks, sniffing, and file trading. Network operators have had to become increasingly involved in helping to mitigate bots and botnets. This session uncovers the beginning steps network operators can take to root out and disrupt botnets.
