The disclosed computer-implemented method for detecting malware infections via domain name service traffic analysis may include (1) detecting, on the computing device, a failed domain name service request originating from the computing device, (2) creating a record including information about the failed domain name request and a static unique identifier for the computing device, (3) correlating the record with a set of previous records about failed domain name service requests originating from the computing device with the static unique identifier, and (4) determining, based on correlating the record with the set of previous records, that the computing device is infected with malware that generated the failed domain name service request. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
