Dear Friends
DarkWeb Is Illegal
I Provide This Knowledge For Educational Purposes Only 
The Dark Web is easy to find. With the right tools, and a stomach made of steel, anyone can access and browse the internet's underbelly. Lurking under the surface of the clear web--sites we visit every day with traditional web browsers and search engines--are indeed black markets loaded with stolen credit card information, black hat hackers, and human and drug traffickers.
The Dark Web, the deep web, and darknet, are spooky-sounding phrases that refer to websites that mask their IP address and can only be accessed using encryption-friendly tools like The Onion Router. TOR is an open source project best known for developing a Firefox-fork web browser pre-loaded with a number of hard-coded security and encryption enhancements. TOR allows users to obfuscate browsing activity by scrambling a user's IP address through a secure and distributed network.
The TOR project also develops Tails, a live, pre-configured Linux distribution that will run on almost any computer. Popularized by Edward Snowden, Tails runs as a discrete operating system on USB flash drives. Tails provides additional layers of security so that Dark Web browsing is not tied directly to a user's machine. Tails also allows users to store encrypted files, run email programs and PGP, and run the TOR browser.
The modern Dark Web's notorious reputation is well-earned, and the hidden internet is undeniably dangerous. Though encrypted websites have existed for more than a decade, the Dark Web rose to mainstream prominence alongside the Silk Road, the now-defunct "Amazon for Drugs." YouTube is loaded with Dark Web horror stories, and the Hidden Wiki serves as a portal to the criminal underground.
There are also number of legitimate reasons users may want to access the Dark Web. The web's substratum is populated by mainstream web companies like Facebook, political activists, and journalists who need to communicate and share sensitive information. The United Nations, FBI, and CIA use the encrypted internet to monitor terror groups like Daesh and keep tabs on criminal profiteers. Corporate IT departments frequently crawl the Dark Web in search of stolen corporate credit card information and compromised accounts.
Here's how to safely access and browse the Dark Web:
Step 1: Plan ahead.
There are plenty of reasons companies and individuals may want to access the Dark Web. SMBs and enterprise companies in particular may want to monitor Dark Web portals for stolen corporate account information. Individuals may want to monitor sites for evidence of identity theft. Facebook's encrypted site, located at facebookcorewwwi.onion, is a feature-rich method of accessing the social network using end-to-end encryption.
- Set a goal, make plans, and stay focused. Be mindful of purpose. Make sure you know what information you're looking for and why you're logging on to the encrypted web. For example, if you're a reporter and need to communicate with sources, focus on PGP, email, and encrypted communication. If you're searching for credit card information, look for Silk Road-type markets that sell hacked data.
- Get what you need, safely disconnect TOR and Tails, then log off.Step 2: Obtain a new USB flash drive.
Step 3: Prepare your local machine.
Ideally, use a fresh laptop. This isn't an option for most users, so instead do everything in your power to secure and isolate mission-critical information.
- Back up critical data and local files.
- Make sure your hardware is optimized and malware-free.
TOR and Tails are available on the TOR Project website. Access download links directly from https://www.torproject.org.
Step 5: Browse safely.
Common portals and search engines:
Encryption is strong, but not impenetrable. The FBI discovered and exploited vulnerabilities in the TOR network. Though the agency refused to disclose the source code used to penetrate the network, undoubtedly law enforcement agencies around the world monitor and operate on the Deep Web. Members of the TOR project vowed to patch network holes and strengthen the protocol.
TechRepublic does not condone illegal or unethical activity. Offensive material can sometimes be just a click away. Browse at your own risk. Never break the law. Use the Dark Web safely, and for legal purposes only.
We're interested in your feedback and thoughts about why and how SMBs and enterprise companies use the Deep Web. Your comments below are welcome.
Popular Sites
* Dream Market
http://ecleg2gwe2edwiuf.onion/Dream Market is one of the most popular Dark web marketplaces in existence today. It’s one of those Tor sites for which all of the Deep web has been stamped as being “illegal” or “dangerous”.
On the marketplace, you can literally buy anything and everything you can imagine, things which you don’t get to buy offline, or on the clearnet sites.
Drugs are the most popular commodity over there, followed by weapons, digital goods, software, porn, and even services such as hacking.
The payment is done via Cryptocurrencies, so the buyer and sellers don’t need to know each other’s identities personally, which provides for extreme anonymity which further boosts the popularity and usage of these sites.
* Valhalla Market
http://valhallaxmn3fydu.onion/I like to provide you with options, so why stop at Dream Market? Valhalla is another established, trusted and one of the oldest dark web marketplaces which hasn’t yet been seized.
It too, like all other darknet marketplaces has the largest stock of Drugs, which are then followed by all the other goods such as credit cards, porn accounts, weapons and what not.
Again, being pretty old (nearly 5 years now) it has managed to keep the identity of its users pretty safe, all thanks to its security protocols and payment methods and hence the surge in its popularity.
* Crime Network
http://cnwv3ycmy4uc7vou.onion/CrimeNetwork is one of the most popular deep web forums plus marketplaces on Tor Network. Most of times, around 300 members are online. If you are looking for a best darknet place, you got it now. You can simply go to Marketplace section; here you will find lots of active threads related to different goods and services like dumps, credit cards, money transfer service, Bankdrops service, spamming services and more. Marketplace section is in English language so if you are the person who don’t understand English consider other alternative like Dream Market, Empire Market etc. When we talk about main forum section, then you can discuss here about fraud, Real crime, Social Engineering, Malware and more. Some threads are in English and in some other language. If you find CrimeNetwork interesting and want to know more information about this, then you can visit given onion link.
* 0day.Today
http://mvfjfugdwgc5uwho.onion/As some of you may have guessed, yes it’s a hackers’ forum, or marketplace in a sense. Nope, not alike Dream or Valhalla market though.
Over there, you can find exploits, payloads and a ton of other elements and things which you can (but shouldn’t) use to learn hacking or actually hack others.
Most of the stuff there is pretty serious and I’m not talking of Phishing or Keyloggers, but actual hacking.
It offers a plethora of things for free, but you can also purchase paid exploits on the platform. There are two payment methods, one is anonymous, simply make payment and receive the payload/exploit on your E-mail.
The other is to be a registered user on the platform, buy 0day Gold, and then use that Gold to buy whatever you need.
What makes it special is its ability to let you “try” whatever you’re buying before actually paying for it!
* Hacker for Hire
http://5eme2auqilcux2wq.onion/When I said you could hire Hackers (and Hitmen) on the dark web, I wasn’t kidding! Neither are the stories a myth.
This site here offers a complete resume, listing the owner’s technical skills, prices, what he’ll do and everything else.
It has an inbuilt order system where you can choose the category of your order, quantity and make the payment using Cryptocurrencies.
*Numbers Station
http://tutdwuh7mlji5we3.onion/Numbers station is basically a type of coded communication used by military and intelligent officers made up of morse codes or random words which make no sense to most people.
This website is one of the most mysterious and creepy .onion websites existing today. It keeps transmitting such coded communications continuously, so you can actually hear whatever’s being transmitted and I promise you it’s scary as hell.
