Expect More IoT Botnet Attacks: Mirai Source Code Now Freely Available

The power of Mirai comes from a growing number of insecure cameras, routers, and other IoT devices that have been taken over by the malware. So far, the Mirai devices have reached 164 countries and it is almost guaranteed that more attacks will follow. In addition to this, we should expect more botnet attacks as a result of this.”]
