  • AUTOMATED IDENTIFICATION OF FALSE POSITIVES IN DNS TUNNELING DETECTORS
    Publication number: 20240146753
    Abstract: Techniques for automated identification of false positives in DNS tunneling detectors are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system, process, and/or computer program product for automated identification of false positives in DNS tunneling detectors includes receiving a set of passive DNS data, wherein the set of passive DNS data includes a DNS query and a DNS response for resolution of the DNS query for each of a plurality of DNS queries; extracting a plurality of features associated with each domain in the set of passive DNS data; and classifying DNS tunneling activities and performing false positive reduction using the plurality of features associated with each domain in the set of passive DNS data to reduce false positive detections.
