Though various cyber-attacks are happening, one of the major attacks via Bot is buzzing in the stream of cybercrime. The significance of the botnets made the researchers work on them and approaches to assuage them. Botnet’s new architecture called Peer – to – Peer (P2P) has made strong against detection over conventional client – server. Due to the superior resiliency next to detection, P2P botnets reputation commenced growing namely ZBot/Zeus, the largest botnet globally estimated to mark 3.6 million PCs [1]. This newly proposed approach is a 2 – step process, initially the engaged hosts in P2P activity are identified and later detects P2P botnets using PeerClear methodology. This methodology works with an accuracy of 99.6% and low false – positive rate < 0.28%.
