Murugiah Souppaya, Michael Bartock, Karen Scarfone, Ryan Savino, Tim Knoll, Uttam Shetty, Mourad Cherfaoui, Raghu Yeluri, Don Banks, Akash Malhotra, Michael Jordan, Dimitrios Pendarakis, Peter Romness
In today's cloud data centers and edge computing, attack surfaces have shifted and, in some cases, significantly increased. At the same time, hacking has become industrialized, and most security control implementations are not coherent or consistent. The

Machine Learning-Based Algorithmically Generated Domain Detection

May 1, 2022
Author(s)
Zheng Wang, Yang Guo, Douglas Montgomery
Malware like botnets typically uses domain generation algorithms (DGAs) to dynamically produce a large number of random algorithmically generated domains (AGDs) and use a few of them to communicate with the command and control servers. AGD detection
