It is disputable whether the period was really as much as 400 years, since the Book of Daniel is believed to have been written during the second century BCE. However, this period is called the intertestamental period.Several of the deuterocanonical books, accepted as scripture by the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches, were also written during this period.
Most Bible scholars believe 400 years expired between the book of Malachi in the Old Testament and the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.

The 400 years of silence is a specific term referring to the lack of prophecy in Christianity between the closing of the Old Testament and the Arrival of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ. The last prophet chronologically in the Old Testament was Malachi.
It was actually the period after the Old Testament period. It's the 400 years from the end of Malachi to the birth of Jesus.

No, the Jewish Cannon of their scriptures (commonly referred to as the "Old Testament") had closed roughly 400 years before Jesus (the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew name Jeshua, which is used in the Old Testament to refer to the follower of Moses that brought the Jews into Canaan) was born. The followers of Jesus recorded stories of his teachings, life, death, resurrection, and ascension in the books that were ultimately collected into the New Testament. Most Jews reject Jesus as a Messiah (transliterate into Greek as Christ) and the New Testament. The Catholic Church closed the Christian Cannon of the New Testament about 400 years after Jesus died.
