Abstract
Systems and methods for enhanced monitoring and adaptive management of inter-network Domain Name System ('DNS') traffic include an information capture device in a monitored network. The information capture device receives a redirected connection request originated by a client machine in the monitored network in response to a modified DNS answer from a recursive name server outside of the monitored network, captures detailed information associated with the redirected connection request that is inaccessible to the recursive name server, and sends the captured information to a data storage accessible to the recursive name server for storage as augmented DNS data associated with the client machine and/or the redirected connection request. The information capture device further provides, in response to the redirected connection request, an adaptive answer generated based on the augmented DNS data to the client machine.
