An Improved Hybrid Peer-to-Peer Routing Algorithm

Now botnets have become the great threat of Internet Security. To be well prepared for future attacks, it is not enough to study how to defend against the botnets that have appeared in the past. More importantly, we should study advanced botnet designs that could be developed in the near future. In this paper, we present the improved design of an advanced hybrid P2P routing algorithm. The first method is based on the distinguish treatment between servent bots and client bots, introduce a connective table into the construction procedure of P2P network, combine with the concept of Maximum Connective Degree(MCD), design a self-adaptive routing algorithm which made the P2P architecture reach a well-balanced connectivity automatically; the second improvement is use dual-channel mechanism to add a special backdoor, which greatly enhanced the robustness of P2P network.
