New Technology for Detecting Zombie PC



The new technology that automatically detects zombie PC through an e-mail has been invented. If the technology is used  it is expected to prevent spam mails up to 30%.

KISA(Korea Internet & Security Agency) announced that it has invented the technology that automatically analizes the feature of e-mail header information and find IP of sender.

In other words, by analizing header information which is needed for sending or receiving e-mail, it detects the PC which is remote-controlled.

A lot of portal sites including DAUM are interested in this new technology.

KISA said it can find the PC that send spam mail without knowing.

It dected 392 in Korea and 14,570 zombie PC in other countries when it is used with connection to RBL(Reamtime Blacklist), one of the spam block system that KISA owns.
