Fast-flux service networks (FFSN) helps the cyber-criminals to hide the servers used for malicious activities behind a wall of proxies (bots). It provides the reliability and detection evasion to a malicious server. FFSN use a large pool of IP addresses for proxies. Detection of FFSN is difficult as few benign technologies like Content distribution networks and round robin DNS have similar working characteristics. Many approaches have been proposed to detect FFSN and fast flux domains. However, due to dynamic behavior of FFSN, these techniques suffer from a significant number of false positives. In this paper, we present a Temporal and Real time detections based approach (TempR) to detect fast flux domains. The features of fast flux domains and benign domains have been collected and classified using intelligent classifiers. Our technique illustrates 96.99% detection accuracy with the recent behavior of fast flux domains.
