Malnets (malware networks) are distributed infrastructures within the Internet that are built and maintained for the purpose of launching a variety of attacks against unsuspecting users over extended periods of time. They gather users, typically when they are visiting trusted sites, and route them to malware, via relay, exploit and payload servers that continually shift to new domains and locations. Blue Coat is currently tracking more than 500 unique malnets though not all 500 will be active on any given day, and the actual size varies from day to day depending on the current level of malicious activities and attacks.
In 2012, Blue Coat Security Labs expects that nearly two-thirds of all new attacks will come from malnets. By identifying and tracking malnet infrastructures, the Blue Coat WebPulse collaborative defense can link new servers and domains to known malicious components and block them at the source, before they are used to launch attacks. This negative day defense delivers the most comprehensive protection against web-based threats.
