How can I different semicolon and colon

Please, Can someone help me ?, is it correct if i put "semicolon" to separate "short phrases with certain content"

I need to different colon and semicolon of this sentence reduced. Thank you.

For example: I have:

.... which are indicators that we will use for our experiments. For instance: "A" represents malicious sources, either coming from botnet networks or remote services; "B" contains 'x' such as 'm', 'n', 'p', and so on, however when the "B" is used as intelligence, this only will represent to the Domain itself; and finally "C" that is similar to "B" because it also contains 'm', 'n', 'p', however this offers more advantage by blocking URLs without the need to block all the domain itself.

You are welcome.

You are right!, "to" and "all" were not necessary. I realized that too.

Regarding the word 'differentiate', i was wrong, thank you so much!.
