Hi there, thank you for your replies.
I didn't want to put down to much information, as if it was innocent, I would be posting details of an actual server on a public forum. I am in the "recon" stage of my learning and have been reading about how network admins make the mistake of doing this, so I was careful not to do the same. I was using an android app called wi-fi analyser, but the CandC doesn't appear on another app called Network discovery (that brings up so many ip add's of computers, servers and mobile phones).
I have notfied our DBA.

Ethical Hacking Discussions and Related Certifications / Network Pen Testing / Should I be worried? CandC server

Hi there, I have scanned the wi-fi in my workplace and have come across this connection: CandC (00:**:7f:**:d6:**) [WPS ESS] [WPA-PSK-TKIP] Ch 6 2437mhz I have googled CandC server and worryingly came across this: "A botnet's originator (known as a "bot herder" or "bot master") can control the group remotely, usually through an IRC, and often for criminal purposes. This server is known as the command-and-control (C&C) server." So is this CandC server I have found something to worry about? Please can you advise if there are innocent CandC servers or always related to botnets? Thanks for your time,
