Abstract

Systems, methods, and software described herein manage traffic rules in association with fully qualified domain names (FQDNs). In one implementation, a domain name system (DNS) security service obtains notifications associated with an FQDN included in DNS requests. In response to the notifications, the DNS security service generates scores for the FQDN based on trust factors associated with the FQDN and determines traffic rules based on the scores.
