Ants are fascinating creatures that work together as a colony, with each ant having its own specific role to play. However, some ants have taken their cooperation to a whole new level by forming what is known as a “ferris wheel botnet.” This is a network of infected computers that communicate with one another in order to perform malicious tasks such as spamming or distributing viruses. The ferris wheel botnet gets its name from the way it operates, with each ant taking turns to be the leader and directing the others’ actions. This makes it difficult for security experts to detect and disrupt these networks, but it is important to do so because they can cause significant damage to computer systems and networks.
