The Secureworks® Threat Intelligence Executive Report (Volume 2023, Number 5) covers the August 29, 2023, takedown of the Qakbot (Qbot) botnet via Operation Duck Hunt by U.S. law enforcement. Researchers used a botnet emulator to understand Qakbot’s communication and control methods, improving defenses against malware it spreads.

This operation disrupted criminal infrastructure but highlights the importance of ongoing vigilance due to botnet resilience.
