Abstract
Techniques are provided for automated classification of domain names resolved by malware. An exemplary method comprises obtaining a domain name included in malware domain resolution requests; obtaining a domain table identifying a plurality of known domains; obtaining a dynamic domain table identifying a plurality of dynamic Domain Name System domains; parsing a full domain name associated with the domain name from the malware domain resolution requests into a Top Level Domain and a Domain; classifying the domain from the malware domain resolution requests name as a dynamic Domain Name System domain if the Top Level Domain and the Domain are found in the dynamic domain table; and storing the classification of the domain name from the malware domain resolution requests as the dynamic Domain Name System domain in the domain table with a complete domain of the domain, a current date and time and a Time-To-Live attribute of the domain from a response of the Domain Name System.
