Abstract
A network apparatus maintains a data repository comprising network traffic data related to a plurality of user devices, the network traffic data being collected from a plurality of Network Service Providers (NSPs). A subset of the plurality of user devices are detected to be communicating with one or more same endpoint devices based on analysing the network traffic data. A number of historical connections between each user device of the subset of the plurality of user devices and the one or more endpoint devices is determined based on analysing historical connection data maintained in the data repository, and in response to detecting that the number of historical connections between the subset of the plurality of user devices and the one or more endpoint devices exceeds a predetermined threshold, the one or more endpoint devices are identified as a suspected botnet.
