Follow us into the shadowy corners of the internet as we uncover … the dark web. You’ve probably heard of it, but do you know what it is or what it means? The dark web uses disguised IP addresses to preserve anonymity for the site owners and the users who visit it. You won’t find a dark web page via search engines, mostly because it’s full of criminal activity. Anything from illegal weapons to drugs, counterfeit items, hacked accounts and software, credit card numbers, and child pornography fill the dark web. Rumor has it that you can even hire a contract killer. According to the threat-intelligence company, Recorded Future, there are thousands of sites on the dark web that serve as marketplaces for hackers selling their services and the data they have stolen. Vulnerable points are exposed, and attack methods are discussed, developed, and sold on these forums. Dark web sites do not end in “.com” or any other common domains. Instead, they end with “onion,” which can only be reached from a Tor network. This is an anonymizing browser that reroutes your webpage requests through a series of proxy servers to hide your location. These sites are never simple names to memorize. For example, the popular site, Dream Market, goes by the address “eajwlvm3z2lcca76.onion.” It also often changes to avoid DDoS attacks. According to Recorded Future, users who visit the Hidden Wiki, a Tor-accessible directory of dark web sites, are three clicks away from 82% of the active dark web, although most will come up with 404 errors. Bitcoin, which allows two parties to make a private, trusted transaction, has been a huge reason the dark web has thrived. When buying something through the dark web, you aren’t usually dealing with honest people. Many times, an e-commerce provider will disappear with customers’ crypto coins. Dark web site owners will gain users’ trust through good comments and ratings, but once they have racked up enough money or feel they might be caught, they quickly change their URL.
