2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 Conclusions 1 2 Bot Market Research Finally We believe the trend of bot markets will increase in the coming years and will be the source of many future breaches. It is important to be aware of this threat and to be familiar with the mitigation methods to protect your organization or your private computer. We have a few recommendations for dealing with these risks: Implement two-factor or multi-factor authentication, that way access to your network will not depend on a compromised username and password. Train employees to detect phishing attacks, the main method of malware delivery. In case of a breach, all passwords must be reset. Ensure that both internal and external users reset their passwords every 90 days and that passwords contain all kinds of characters. Do not reuse the same password for all accounts, that way if password is stolen it would only allow the attacker to access one platform. + + + + + 21 The Rise of Dark Web Botnet Marketplaces The Rise of Dark Web Botnet Marketplaces 21
