Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Malware infection of network users is one of the critical threats on the Internet. Users have a risk of being infected with malware in various ways, such as through email attachments, browsing websites, and clicking on web advertisements. A major countermeasure for malware infection is a signature-type detection method that uses a blacklist to block communication with a C&C server that the malware accesses for malicious attacks. However, if the C&C server is an unknown malicious domain name not included in the blacklist, the countermeasure cannot be effective. Furthermore, malware is on the rise every day, so the unknown malicious domain names have been increasing. This paper focuses on the DNS query logs of malware-infected devices and proposes an unknown malicious domain name detection method using the access history of network users. We aim to detect an unknown malicious domains name using machine learning to analyze the access history of DNS queries of malware-infected devices. In this study, to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we verify the detection performance of unknown malicious domain names using actual DNS query logs.
