Abstract

Botnet is a group of hosts infected with the same malicious code and managed by an attacker or Botmaster through one or more command and control (C&C) servers. The new generation of Botnets generates C&C domain name server’ s list dynamically. This dynamic list created by a domain generation algorithm helps an attacker to periodically change its C&C servers and prevent their addresses from being blacklisted. Each infected host generates a large number of domain names using a predefined algorithm and attempts to map them to their corresponding addresses by sending queries to the domain server. In this paper, the Deep Autoencoder Neural Network is used to identify domains without any knowledge of their generating algorithm, and the performance of the proposed method is compared with the performance of machine learning algorithms. Initially, a new dataset is created by combining a data set with normal domains and two datasets containing malicious and abnormal domains and both manual and automated methods are used to extract the features of the new dataset. Deep Autoencoder Neural Network is applied to new and pre-processed datasets and the results are compared with machine learning algorithms. Based on the obtained results, it is possible to identify the malicious domains generated by domain generating algorithms using the Deep Autoencoder Neural Network with a higher speed and an accuracy rate larger than 98. 61%.
