The Mozi botnet is an IoT botnet that borrows the code from Mirai and the Gafgyt malware. The malware spreads by attempting to guess Telnet passwords of target devices and leveraging known exploits. The botnet was mainly involved in DDoS attacks in the last months of 2019. IBM report published by IBM says the botnet accounted for 90% of the IoT network traffic observed between October 2019 and June 2020. There are about 31 billion IoT devices deployed around the globe and the IoT deployment rate is now 127 devices per second.”]
