This document outlines key topics in information security including basic terminology like vulnerabilities, threats, and attacks. It discusses different types of malware like viruses, trojans, and spyware. It also describes spoofing attacks including email, URL, DNS, IP, and MAC spoofing. Network-based attacks like worms and denial of service attacks are mentioned. Social engineering techniques that target human weaknesses are discussed. The document concludes with recommendations for protecting systems like using firewalls, updating software, using antivirus, and backing up data.
The document discusses the Deep Web, which comprises about 96% of the content on the web that is hidden from traditional search engines. It contains two types of content - innocuous uncensored information as well as illegal material like child pornography or hiring assassins. Accessing the Deep Web can be dangerous as it exposes users to viruses, spyware, and legal risks if accessing illegal government files. However, some are curious to use it to access uncensored information since traditional search methods involve censorship. There are two main ways to access the Deep Web - using the Tor searcher to create a false IP address or hacking the Mozilla Firefox browser.
This presentation provides an overview of Tor (The Onion Router) in 18 slides. It begins with defining Tor as free software that helps defend against traffic analysis to protect user privacy on public networks. It then covers the history and development of Tor, why anonymity is needed on the internet, how Tor works using onion routing and encryption, who commonly uses Tor including activists, media and law enforcement, weaknesses of using Tor, and the future of continuing to improve Tor's security and usability. The presentation concludes that Tor provides a means for safe and secure anonymous web use at no cost, though it can also be used for malicious purposes.

This document provides an overview of the surface web, deep web, and dark web. It defines each: the surface web is publicly accessible content indexed by search engines, the deep web is private or non-indexed content like emails or social media posts, and the dark web can only be accessed through specialized browsers like TOR and contains illegal sites for drugs, guns, and financial fraud. It gives examples of each and discusses advantages and disadvantages of TOR, a software used to access the dark web anonymously, providing both privacy and enabling access to illegal markets and activities.
Tor Browser is an anonymity software that protects users by routing their internet connections through a distributed network of volunteer-run relays around the world, preventing anyone from learning a user's physical location or sites visited. It was developed in the 1990s at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory based on onion routing and later launched as an open-source project. It is now maintained by the non-profit Tor Project, funded mainly by the U.S. government along with other organizations. Tor works by encrypting a user's data and transferring it through successive random relays, with each relay decrypting only one layer of encryption so that no single relay knows both the origin and destination of the data.

Acpe 2014 Internet Anonymity Using TorJack Maynard
Tor is free and open-source software that allows users to improve their anonymity and privacy online. It works by routing a user's internet traffic through a worldwide network of relays run by volunteers, making it difficult to track a user's location and browsing activities. While it can enable legal and beneficial uses like protecting free speech, Tor also allows criminal activities to take place anonymously, such as buying illegal drugs. The presentation discusses how Tor works, potential benefits and risks, and how network administrators can block Tor traffic on their systems using firewall rules and blacklists of Tor exit nodes.
Tor is a free tool that allows users to browse the internet anonymously. It works by routing internet traffic through a network of volunteers around the world, preventing others from seeing what sites a user visits. Originally created by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory to protect government communications, Tor has since been adopted by normal users, journalists, activists, and others seeking privacy online or wanting to access censored sites. It encrypts data and routes it through several volunteer nodes, removing layers of encryption at each stop to hide a message's origin, destination, and contents from intermediaries.
The document provides an overview of the dark net (also called the dark web). It begins by explaining that the surface web that is accessible through traditional search engines like Google only represents about 4% of total online content, while the remaining 96% is found in the deep web and darknet. The darknet is purposefully hidden and can only be accessed using special software like Tor, Freenet, and I2P. It then gives a brief history of the darknet beginning in 1970 and the development of tools like Tor. Reasons for using the darknet include protecting privacy and allowing for whistleblowing, while some also use it for computer crimes and selling restricted goods. The document concludes by describing some common darknet software
The document discusses the history and evolution of the Internet. It describes how the Internet began as a network called ARPANET established by the US Department of Defense in 1969.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.

tor/
“The Tor network is used by all kinds of people around the world;
anyone with a need or desire to protect their online privacy. Regular
Internet users who want to keep their emails private or protect their
children from online predators use Tor to retain their anonymity.
Citizens of countries who censor the Internet use Tor to access blocked
news or social media sites, or research sensitive information on topics
like AIDs or birth control that may not be available
elsewhere. Journalists, bloggers, and human rights activists use Tor to
protect themselves from retaliation from governments or employers.
And whistleblowers use Tor to keep safe when reporting corruption.”
