A major malware botnet known as Mozi suddenly terminated its operations at the end of September, and no one seems to know exactly why.
As reported by cybersecurity researchers ESET, from August 8 until September 27, someone has been sending messages to the bots (which are nothing but infected devices belonging to people and organizations around the world) to cease operations. All the bots in India were the first to fall, followed by China, the country where Mozi originated, BleepingComputer reports.
