Abstract
Various techniques for detecting visual similarity between DNS fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for detecting visual similarity between DNS FQDNs includes receiving a DNS data stream, wherein the DNS data stream includes a DNS query and a DNS response for resolution of the DNS query; performing extended sequence alignment for each of the set of FQDNs to identify potential malware FQDNs for one or more target FQDNs based on a visual similarity for each domain in the DNS data stream; and classifying the set of domains as malware FQDNs or benign FQDNs based on results of the extended sequence alignment.
