1. A method for calculating relatedness scores, which are indicative of relatedness of pairs of domain names requested by clients, the method comprising:

  • receiving domain name system (DNS) traffic data, wherein the DNS traffic data includes at least domain names requested by clients and identities of the clients requesting the domain names;

    generating sequences of the domain names based on the received DNS traffic data;

    collecting co-occurrence counts for queried pairs of domain names;

    applying a probabilistic association estimate to the collected counts to determine the relatedness scores of the queried pairs of domain names; and

    storing the determined relatedness scores.
