Abstract: Although the DNS over HTTPS (DoH) protocol has desirable properties for Internet users such as privacy and security, it also causes a problem in that network administrators are prevented from detecting suspicious network traffic generated by malware and malicious tools. To support their efforts in maintaining network security, in this paper, we propose a novel system that identifies malicious DNS tunnel tools through a hierarchical classification method that uses machine-learning technology on DoH traffic. We implemented a prototype of the proposed system and evaluated its performance on the CIRA-CIC-DoHBrw-2020 dataset, obtaining 99.81% accuracy in DoH traffic filtering, 99.99% accuracy in suspicious DoH traffic detection, and 97.22% accuracy in identification of malicious DNS tunnel tools.
