In today’s world of ever-evolving cyberthreats, malicious actors are always finding new ways to evade detection. The more dynamic they are in their approach, the more successful they will be in getting past defenses that use static methods, such as blacklists that are rarely updated.
In this white paper, we will cover one such dynamic tactic used by cyber criminals: domain generation algorithms (DGAs). We will also cover some unique and cutting-edge methods leveraging artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) to counter these threats and discuss how to handle false detections (both positive and negative).
