Ngioweb Botnet Drives NSOCKS Residential Proxy Network Leveraging IoT Devices
A malicious software called Ngioweb has been employed to power a well-known residential proxy platform named NSOCKS, along with other platforms like VN5Socks and Shopsocks5, recent discoveries from Lumen Technologies indicate.
“In our data, over 80% of NSOCKS bots come from the Ngioweb botnet, primarily using small office/home office (SOHO) routers and Internet of Things (IoT) devices,” disclosed the team at Black Lotus Labs.
