This presentation provides an overview of the deep web and discusses some of the dangers it poses. It defines the deep web and explains how it differs from the surface web. The presentation notes that the deep web is much larger than the surface web and contains dynamic, unlinked, private, and restricted content that search engines cannot access. It describes how tools like Tor can be used to anonymously access dark web sites ending in .onion and discusses some of the illegal activities that occur on the deep web, like drug trafficking, weapons sales, and hiring criminals. The presentation aims to educate information security professionals about the deep web so they can help address illegal activities occurring there.
The internet contents an average person see on internet is not the whole web. So the remaining is called dark web. This presentation is about types of web and mainly on dark web.
Topics covered are:
-What is Onion Routing?
-What is Tor onion routing?
-How is Tor different from other proxies?
-How Tor works?
-Advantages of Tor
-Disadvantages of Tor

Spooky Halloween IT Security Lecture -- The Deep WebNicholas Davis
On the occasion of Halloween, I like to give the students in my IS 365 Information Security class at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a break from the normal course material. Therefore, today, I presented a class lecture on the Deep Web (the hidden, scary and dark side of the Internet) Appropriate for this spooky time of year. While it was intended to be fun, it also sparked good conversation within the class, and they learned some solid concepts about ways in which people try to evade IT security controls, to preserve anonymity.
Scary Halloween Cybersecurity Lecture -- The Deep WebNicholas Davis
The Information Security class I teach at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is a broad survey course. To be honest, sometimes the material gets a bit dry. Therefore, tomorrow's lecture, which was supposed to be about secure network architecture, will now instead be about the Deep Web, the scary and mysterious part of the Internet, dedicated to spooky, nefarious and illegal activity. I think it is good to give the students a break from classic course material, and spend some time on this tangentially related topic. I am putting together a class discussion exercise to go along with it.

Keeping with the Halloween spirit, I created an entire lecture devoted to the spooky deep web, for my Information Systems 365/765 students. In class I often try to tell them to memorize certain concepts and learn about topics which they can pull out in a job interview. If they can talk competently to a recruiter about the technologies used for illicit activities on the deep web, it is something that the interviewer will remember. It also makes lecture a lot less boring, when you can explore a niche topic such as the deep web. I am always available for corporate consulting engagements, if you are interested.
A spooky presentation about the Deep Web. Deep Web (also called the Deepnet,Invisible Web, or Hidden Web) is World Wide Web content that is not part of the Surface Web, which is indexed by standard search engines. It should not be confused with the dark Internet, the computers that can no longer be reached via the Internet, or with a Darknet distributed filesharing network, which could be classified as a smaller part of the Deep Web. Some prosecutors and government agencies think that the Deep Web is a haven for serious criminality.[4]
Finding things that we are hard to find
A large portion of data available on the web is present in the so called deep web..
World Wide Web content that is not part of the Surface Web and is indexed by search engines.
It is called the Deep Web, Invisible Web or Hidden Web.
A darknet (or dark net) is any overlay network that can be accessed only with specific software, configurations, or authorization, often using non-standard communications protocols and ports. Two typical darknet types are friend-to-friend networks (usually used for file sharing with a peer-to-peer connection)and privacy networks such as Tor.
Right below the surface of where the iceberg meets underwater is the deep web.
It’s comprised of the same general hostnames as sites on the surface web, but along with the extension of those domains.
This is the specific URL of your Facebook Messenger thread with a friend, or the Department of Justice’s public archival material, or Harvard’s internal communications system. The deep web is the majority of the internet as a whole.
In this presentation you'll learn the basics of staying safe online and protecting your privacy. Topics covered include privacy tools, passwords, internet browser settings, and VPN.
Conducting a NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) AssessmentNicholas Davis
In today's ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape, organizations face an increasing number of threats. Conducting a NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) assessment can be a valuable tool to identify, manage, and mitigate these risks. Let's explore how it can benefit your organization.
A NIST CSF assessment is not just about compliance; it's about proactively managing your cybersecurity posture. By identifying and addressing your vulnerabilities, you can reduce the likelihood and impact of cyberattacks. Additionally, the framework can help you communicate your security efforts effectively to internal and external stakeholders.
UW-Madison, Information Systems 371 - Decision Support SystemsNicholas Davis
Today, is Information Systems 371, I am lecturing about Decision Support Systems. In addition to covering the basics at a conceptual level, I am trying to get the students to think about the impact of IoT, 5G, and Artificial Intelligence, in terms of how Decision Support Systems are changing and what the new demands placed upon them will be.
During the Spring semester, I teach a 3 credit survey course in software development, at UW-Madison (IS 371), which is the first in the series of courses in the Information Systems major track. As part of this course, I devote an entire lecture to discussing different types of software development (Agile, Waterfall, Extreme, Spiral, etc.) I hope it helps the students better understand the different types of software development styles, as well as the benefits and drawbacks of each. In my opinion, they need to learn early on that there is more than one way to go about a software development challenge, and they need to figure out which style works best for them.
Information systems 365 - Cloud and BYOD SecurityNicholas Davis
Today, in class, I will be covering the topics of Cloud and BYOD Information Security. The intent of the lecture is to introduce students to the general issues surrounding information security in these two areas.

Bringing the Entire Information Security Semester Together With a Team ProjectNicholas Davis
Absorbing information does no good, unless you are able to apply what you have learned. Each semester, I give my information security students a team project, in which they must use all the knowledge acquired during the semester, in combination with their ability to do Internet research, to deliver an overall information security assessment of a company of their choosing. To make it a challenge, I make them grade all the other teams in the class, but only give them enough points to distribute so that the average is 90. In grading their peers, they must make decisions about which presentations are excellent, and which are not.
