Fast-Flux Data from ATLAS
Yesterday Jose blogged about "2008 H2 Fast Flux Data Analysis" based on the information collected by ATLAS. They discover on average between 40 and 50 new fast-flux domains per day and found the following trends:
It's interesting to see the new developments in this area compared to our paper from late 2007 and the measurement results from ATLAS. Our fast-flux tracking system will be online again in the next few days, I will also blog about some updates in the future.
We’re seeing two trends of note with respect to 2008 with fast flux domain registrations and use. The first is the growth of .CN as a fast flux TLD. Most of the .CN domains we see registered and fluxing come through a registrar like BIZCN, whom we now treat with some suspicion. [...] The second big trend over 2008 is the migration away from .COM and .CN to a lot more TLDs.
