Google works with FBI to disrupt \'NetNut\' malicious proxy network
Google Threat Intelligence Group said on July 6 it worked with the FBI and industry partners to disrupt NetNut, one of the world’s largest malicious residential proxy networks. It said the proxy network industry is closely interconnected through operators trading botnet resources. Google estimated NetNut infected and controlled at least 2 million devices via the BadBox 2.0 botnet and trojan apps, including many smart TVs and set-top boxes.
