Investigations on the Darknet: Case Studies from the Co-Founder of the Tor Project

The darknet is a network, built on top of the internet that is purposefully hidden, meaning it has been designed specifically for anonymity. Unlike the deep web, the darknet is only accessible with special tools and software - browsers and other protocol beyond direct links or credentials. You cannot access the darknet by simply typing a dark web address into your web browser. 

Join us for this webinar to explore various case studies that involve utilizing information found on the darknet as a part of criminal investigations. Using real-world, darknet-based examples that have been selected for an intelligence community based audience, we will walk-through examples of different methodologies that law enforcement can use. These methodologies include how to de-anonymize threat actors, the different tools and approaches one can take to conduct these types of investigations, best practices, lessons learned, and more.
