Abstract
We present nDEWS, a Hadoop-based automatic early warning system of malicious domains for domain name registry operators, such as top-level domain (TLD) registries. By monitoring an entire DNS zone, nDEWS is able to single out newly added suspicious domains by analyzing both domain registration and global DNS lookup patterns of a TLD. nDEWS is capable to detect several types of domain abuse, such as malware, phishing, and allegedly fraudulent web shops. To act on this data, we have established a pilot study with two major .nl registrars, and provide them with daily feeds of their respective suspicious domains. Moreover, nDEWS can also be implemented by other TLD operators/registries.
