Abstract
A method for detecting a domain name that is associated with malicious behavior includes receiving domain data for a plurality of domain names including a first domain name and a plurality of similar domain names. The domain data includes a first attribute and a second attribute of the first domain name and the similar domain names. The first attribute of the first domain name is compared to the first attributes of the similar domain names to produce a first value. The second attribute of the first domain name is compared to the second attributes of the similar domain names to produce a second value. The first value and the second value are combined to produce a combined value. A likelihood that the first domain name is associated with malicious behavior is determined based on the combined value.
