abstract = {An ultra-fast approach for botnet detection is developed to process network traffic in one-second windows without significant loss in performance. The model outperforms existing methods, achieving an F1 score of 0.926 with a processing time of 0.007 ms per sample. It remains robust under network saturation and performs well on various bandwidths with minimal CPU core requirements.},
