Hunt Hypothesis

This hunt targets the presence of known botnet command-and-control (C2) infrastructure by identifying traffic to 47 malicious URLs associated with botnet domains. Proactively hunting for these indicators in Azure Sentinel allows the SOC to detect compromised endpoints or lateral movement attempts before the botnet can fully establish persistence or execute its payload.

IOC Summary

Threat: botnetdomain Total URLs: 47 Active URLs: 42
