+We can see in \Fref{fig:sr2} and \Fref{fig:pr3}, that we have to reduce the incoming edges by \SI{20}{\percent} and \SI{30}{\percent} respectively to get average values for SensorRank and PageRank.
+This also means, that the amount of incoming edges for a sensor must be about the same as the average about of incoming edges as can be seen in \Fref{fig:in3}.
+Depending on the protocol details of the botnet (\eg{} how many incoming edges are allowed per peer), this means that a large amount of sensors is needed, if we want to monitor the whole network.

 % Experiments were performed, in which a percentage of random outgoing edges were added to the known sensor, based on the amount of incoming edges:
-We evaluate the impact of outgoing edges by picking a percentage of random nodes in each bucket and creating edges from the sensor to each of the sampled peers, thereby evening the ratio between \(\deg^{+}\) and \(\deg^{-}\).

+On the other hand, graph ranking algorithms have been proven to be hard to bypass without requiring large amounts of sensor nodes.
