Abstract
The present disclosure is related to a computer-implemented method and system for distinguishing human-driven Doman Name System (DNS) queries from Machine-to-Machine (M2M) DNS queries. The method includes receiving a DNS query, which includes a domain name, generating a probability score for the domain name based on one or more predetermined rules, and categorizing the DNS query as a human-driven DNS query or a M2M DNS query based on the probability score.
