Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The threats of malicious websites are increasing that, urgent countermeasures are needed. Using a block list of known malicious URLs is a standard method against these threats, and number of studies have been conducted to collect malicious URLs from Web access logs. In this paper, we propose a method for efficiently discovering malicious URLs from Web access logs. We abstract high-risk domains from Web access logs by focusing on risky users and risky URL categories, and submit them to VirusTotal, a cloud security service that checks submitted files and URLs, to collect related malicious URLs. Then, we resubmit these URLs to VirusTotal to obtain the latest AV scan results. In the evaluation experiment using a Web access log of 600 users, we show that by focusing on high-risk users and high-risk domain categories, we were able to collect twice as many malicious URLs compared to those when randomly selected. We also confirmed the effect of preventing users from accessing malicious sites by using the collected malicious URLs as a block list.
