Abstract
Exemplary systems and methods for detecting a communication channel of a bot. In exemplary embodiments, presence of a communication channel between a first network device and a second network device is detected. Data from the communication channel is scanned and used to determine if a suspected bot communication exists. If a bot communication is detected, then a recovery process may be initiated.
