DARK WEB : UNVEILING THE PATHWAYS TO CRIMINALITY IN THE CYBER UNDERGROUND Gnanavel.L, Student – IV th year B.Com. LL.B (Hons),School of Excellence in Law [SOEL], The Tamil Nadu Dr Ambedkar Law University, Chennai, TAMILNADU. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT This research paper delves into the intricacies of the Dark Web and its impact on internet users, focusing on privacy, security, and the perpetration of cybercrimes. The advent of the Internet in the 20th century paved the way for the World Wide Web, transforming communication and information exchange globally. However, the ease of quick communication also raised concerns about privacy and security, particularly with the emergence of the Dark Web. The Dark Web constitutes a small but significant part of the Deep Web, requiring specialized software like the Tor browser for access. This hidden online environment facilitates both positive, secure communication and nefarious activities, creating a dichotomy. The research objectives include evaluating cybersecurity threats, analyzing societal impacts, and examining measures to regulate the Dark Web and reduce crime rates. The overview on the Dark Web explores its origins, structure, and access methods. Tor, developed by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, plays a crucial role in accessing the Dark Web by employing onion routing for anonymity. Also, this paper highlights the three layers of the internet – Surface Web, Deep Web, and Dark Web – each serving different purposes. The criminal activities associated with the Dark Web are discussed, ranging from cyber terrorism and illegal markets to hitman hiring and information leakage. The paper sheds light on the challenges law enforcement faces in combating crimes on the Dark Web due to its encrypted and anonymous nature. The importance of legislative frameworks and law enforcement efforts is emphasized to curb cybercrimes and protect individuals’ security and privacy. In conclusion, the research underscores the significance of understanding the Dark Web’s dynamics to combat cybercrime effectively.
