Imagine millions of infected devices silently working together, all under the control of one attacker—that’s a botnet.
These devices, or “bots,” can be manipulated remotely to launch massive attacks, steal data, or send spam, with the bot-herder pulling the strings.
The sheer scale of botnets makes them powerful tools for cybercriminals, enabling actions that would be impossible with just one machine.
To make things worse, these networks can be rented out to others, turning them into an underground market commodity.
