{wiki=Domain_generation_algorithm}
A Domain Generation Algorithm (DGA) is a technique used by malicious software (malware) to generate a large number of domain names that can be used to establish communication with command and control (C&C) servers. DGAs can enable cybercriminals to maintain control over infected systems, evade detection, and make it harder for security measures to block their communications. \#\#\# How it Works: 1. **Generation Algorithm**: DGAs typically use a set of rules or algorithms to create domain names.
