True

TRUE. A botnet is a number of Internet-connected devices, each of which is running one or more bots. Botnets can be used to perform distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack), steal data,[citation needed] send spam, and allow the attacker access to the device and its connection. The owner can control the botnet using command and control (C&C) software.[1] The word botnet is a combination of the words robot and network. The term is usually used with a negative or malicious connotation. EDIT First the question is horribly written and is missing words to make is fully understandable. Second the explanation does not in any way explain how a workstation sweeping and scanning across the network makes it part of a botnet. Explain! **
