Challenge:

The problem is that the Dark Web is not easily accessible like the regular internet. It needs special browsers like TOR, TAILS, I2P, Freenet, etc. to access .onion or .i2p domains. The data through these networks is relayed multiple times making it difficult to trace back to the source.

Moreover, the Dark Web is vast and constantly changing. There are numerous websites, chat rooms, and shopping sites where illegal actions can take place. One domain shuts down and other pops up.

To add to the complexity, there are different search engine tools for the Dark Web like Katana, Onion search, Ahmia search engine, Darksearch, and others. Each of these tools works differently and may return different results.

The Dark Web is not indexed by traditional search engines and needs special browsers like TOR (The Onion Router) or I2P (Invisible Internet Project) to access. These browsers can reach .onion or .i2p domains, which are used for anonymous and often illicit activities. These domains are not simple to navigate, they frequently change to avoid detection, and they often use complex encryption methods to ensure anonymity.

TOR network, for example, routes its traffic through a number of volunteer-operated servers or relays. This makes the origin of the traffic hard to track, adding a layer of security for its users but making it challenging for anyone trying to monitor the network. Each relay only knows the IP of the previous and next hop, but no single relay knows the full path that a data packet has taken, making traffic analysis extremely difficult.

There are several search tools for the Dark Web like Katana, Onion Search, Ahmia, and Darksearch. However, these search engines work differently than standard ones like Google or Bing. They have different algorithms, they scan different sites, and they often provide different results. Understanding how these tools work and how to effectively use them for data collection can be a major challenge.

The Dark Web is constantly evolving, and so are the tools used to study it. Tools like OnionScan, Onioff, and Onion-nmap are used to find onion links, while TorBot, TorCrawl, and OnionIngestor are used to scrape data from these sites. These tools often update to adapt to the changing environment of the Dark Web. Keeping up with these updates, understanding how these tools work, and knowing how to use them successfully can be quite challenging.

Monitoring the Dark Web is a complex job due to its anonymous nature, the complexity of its networks, the constant evolution of its landscape, and the specialized tools needed to navigate it. It takes a deep understanding of the Dark Web, advanced technical skills, and continuous learning and adaptation. And The Expectations for a tool are to crawl Dark Web and look for keywords on its websites.

Expectations From the tool:

• Simple Interface/Console with VPN: The tool should have a user-friendly interface that instantly connects to a VPN (Virtual Private Network). This is to ensure safe and anonymous browsing on the Dark Web.
• Fetch Data from Different Browsers: The tool should be able to gather data from different Dark Web browsers like TOR(The Onion Router) - It routes its traffic through the anonymous Tor network, TAILS (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) - TAILS is a portable operating system that protects against monitoring and censorship, I2P (Invisible Internet Project) - It is an anonymous network layer that allows for censorship-resistant, peer-to-peer contact, Freenet - It is decentralized to make it less open to attacks. It works by saving encrypted data in nodes across multiple machines. This means it should be flexible enough to work with different technologies used to access the Dark Web.
• Data Filtering: Once the data is collected, the tool should be able to filter it based on various factors like keywords (e.g., Murder, Arms, Drugs), geo-location, state, district, date, etc. This will help in narrowing down the information to what is most important.
• Reveal IP Details: An advanced feature of the tool could be to reveal the IP details of Dark Web sites and users. This is a challenging job due to the anonymous nature of the Dark Web but can be very useful in tracking illegal activities.
• Identify Sellers: The tool should be able to identify sellers of any goods and provide ways to track them. This means it should be able to crawl through all types of websites, chat rooms, shopping sites, etc., and gather as much information as possible.
• Web Archive Time-Based Proxy: The tool should provide a way to view web archives, which are older versions of websites. This can be useful in tracking the past of a website or a user. The tool should also have features like Geolocation identification, TOR Keyword Search, and Dark Web Crawlers for complete monitoring of the Dark Web.

Make a tool / Solution for Dark Web monitoring, offering an easy-to-use interface, secure browsing, versatile data collection, advanced data filtering, and effective tracking mechanisms.
