A new botnet malware named ‘Eleven11bot’ has infected over 86,000 IoT devices, primarily security cameras and network video recorders (NVRs), to conduct DDoS attacks.

The botnet, which is loosely linked to Iran, has already launched distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks targeting telecommunication service providers and online gaming servers.
