Chapter 236 Know Yourself and Your Enemy, and You Will Win Every Battle
A small conference room.
The special criminal case task force gathered.
Lin Xuan and other team members were looking at Zhan Shaoyang.
Because everyone present can only consider computers to be at the level of ordinary people.
Zhan Shaoyang is not only a genius, hacker, and master in this field, but he is also a former national network security expert.
If you want to take down a dark web, you must first understand the dark web.
"The Dark Web first originated from the Sam Navy."
Zhan Shaoyang's face was solemn, and he was popularizing science for his partners, "Darknet was originally developed just to transmit information, but it can effectively prevent leaks because any transmitted information and data will be encrypted layer by layer."
"But in 2003, there was a financial gap in the navy of Sam State, and it sold the darknet code to some people in exchange for a large amount of money. Therefore... the darknet technology was completely leaked and spread to hackers and civilians."
"In the following years, after continuous development and upgrading, the cybercriminal paradise, the criminal deep web, was finally formed, which is what ordinary people call the dark web."
“However, many ordinary people think they have entered the dark web, but unfortunately they do not know that the dark web has layers of encryption and protection. It is divided into the surface dark web, the primary dark web, the middle dark web, and the bottom dark web. The dark web, and the deep dark web.”
"Some people who have entered the dark web may think it looks like some spam websites. In fact, it is a misunderstanding. It is all on the surface."
"In other words, the absolute majority of darknets that ordinary people can access are at most the first three layers, and very few people can enter the last two layers."
"All they can see are entry-level things. Anyone who can enter deeper levels will be allowed to enter only after their identity has been verified and confirmed that there is no danger."
"But once you enter the deep dark web, your personal information is basically in the hands of criminals."
"Anytime and anywhere it may lead to death, or even become the target of criminals..."
"So the dark web has gradually developed into the best place for criminals to hide their identities and conduct criminal transactions."
"Arms trading, terrorist attacks, drug trafficking, which can be as big as harming the country...Human trafficking, organ trading, assassinations, pornographic broadcasts, silver selling, criminal live broadcasts, information leakage, etc. that can be as small as threatening personal safety."
"Anyway, in one sentence, as long as you can think of crimes, you can basically find them everywhere on the large dark web."
"It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you have money and the money is in place, some people on the dark web can meet all your needs and requirements."
"However, this kind of money is not money used by ordinary people. It needs to be exchanged for virtual currencies, such as Bitcoin, through special channels."
"These virtual currencies are extremely confidential, and it is extremely difficult to trace the source. In addition, the confidentiality of the dark web is too high. It is impossible for ordinary police, even some computer experts, to track the dark web."
"To put it more bluntly, when a person enters the dark web, all information will be erased. Unless you can find the dark web host and trace it through the host, there is no other way."
"But the most terrifying source of the dark web is these hosts, which are also running the dark web. You have no idea how these hosts exist."
"It may be a physical mainframe, or it may be a rented network virtual host, or it may be a combination of various hosts. Only you can't think of it, and there is nothing criminals can't do."
"I once saw such a situation..."
Zhan Shaoyang's expression was constantly changing and solemn, "Someone is selling nuclear warheads on the dark web!"
"Hiss!" A gasp sounded.
Nuclear warhead?
Isn't this a joke?
The number of nuclear warheads in the world, and even in every country, is countless, right?
Every nuclear warhead is also recorded from the moment it is manufactured.
If a nuclear warhead is lost, the entire country will be blown up, right?
As shown in the movie, the brainless plot of trading nuclear bombs at every turn, whose IQ is it rubbing off on?
Since someone is selling it on the dark web, there are only two possibilities.
1. Fake.
2. There are problems with internal personnel in some countries.
Nothing else is possible.
The first guess is easy to say.
If it’s the second type, it’s scary to think about it!
Through Zhan Shaoyang's words, everyone probably learned a little about the dark web.
I understand how this darknet emerged.
I also understand how difficult it is to find and enter the dark web.
According to the investigation report of the local police.
Investigators have used suspects' tools to log into the dark web and were discovered.
Why was it discovered?
Zhan Shaoyang inferred.
This tool is already bound to one computer and cannot be used on the second computer.
And there is a camera on this computer.
There will be facial recognition inside the dark web.
Each time, only specific members can log in.
If there are other people around a specific member, facial recognition will also 'alarm' immediately.
Criminals responsible for maintaining the dark web will also target the member as soon as possible.
Presumably at that time, they noticed the police presence around the suspect.
Then directly close the login tool authorization.
Those who can play on the dark web are those with hundreds of thousands of people and have existed for a long time.
Is there any need to mention the ‘defense and security’ methods of this darknet?
Zhan Shaoyang even had some doubts.
The personal information of ordinary police officers on the public security network may be known on the dark web.
Never assume that information about public security personnel is secret.
Unless some specific police, such as national security, drug enforcement, special police, undercover... and other police are secret and strictly confidential.
The information of other ordinary police may be easily obtained and sold by some hackers.
Anyway, after Zhan Shaoyang's narration.
Everyone's scalp began to numb.
No wonder countries are frantically cracking down on the dark web.
This is so terrifying, how can we not crack down on it?
But how to crack down on it?
The confidentiality of the dark web is too high, and the defense measures are too high. You can't even enter it.
How do you crack down on it?
Then find a way... Lin Xuan took out his cell phone and called Liu Yan, "Sister Liu, please ask the network security people how many dark webs they have under surveillance, large dark webs."
Then, Lin Xuan called Zhou Lie again, "Brother Zhou, do you know about the dark web? Yes, do you have any large dark webs under surveillance?"
Putting down the phone, Lin Xuan looked at team member Li Long, "Brother Li, you used to be a national security officer... understand?"
Li Long didn't waste any words, took out his cell phone and contacted the national security personnel.
"Zhan Shaoyang, you used to be a national network security expert, go ask your friends."
"Okay!" Zhan Shaoyang also started the computer.
The public security, national security, special operations, hackers...all started because of Lin Xuan.
The expressions of the other team members were so wonderful.
When Lin Xuan first joined the special criminal case team, he was just a small policeman.
Is he so awesome now?
