Abstract
The never-ending menace of botnet is causing many serious problems on the Internet. Although there are significant efforts on detecting botnet at the global level which rely heavily on finding failed queries and domain flux information for botnet detection, there are very few efforts being made to detect bot infection at an enterprise level. Detecting bot-infected machines is vital for any organization in combating various security threats. This work proposes a novel anomaly-based detection technique which considers hourly hosts DNS fingerprint and attempts to find anomalous behavior which is quite different from normal machine behavior. This work successfully demonstrates the DNS Anomaly Detection (named BotDAD) technique for detecting bot-infected machine in a network using DNS fingerprinting.
