Mission Specific Training
Illuminating the Dark Web
The dark web is a hive of illegal activity which requires specialist skills to access and investigate safely and effectively. This course will provide a holistic training curriculum to take someone from starting out on understanding dark nets and the dark web, through to building investigation capability for threat actors across multiple dark nets.
In this course, you will learn about different dark nets and attribution considerations. You will also look at how to configure your client to access, and safely search, monitor, and investigate the dark web. Most importantly you will gain hands-on experience with accessing the dark web during the course.
