Abstract
A processing system having at least one processor may obtain domain name system (DNS) traffic records of a DNS platform, the DNS traffic records associated with a source device having a first status and that is submitting DNS queries, where a first-tier DNS authoritative server of the DNS platform is configured to forward the DNS queries from the source device to at least a first second-tier DNS authoritative server of the DNS platform designated for the first status. The processing system may further detect anomalous DNS traffic records from the DNS traffic records, identify a change of the source device from a first status to a second status, based upon the detecting the anomalous DNS traffic records, and reconfigure the first-tier DNS authoritative server to redirect the DNS queries from the source device to at least a second second-tier DNS authoritative server designated for the second status.
