This move is intended to increase the cost of DoS attacks to unsustainable levels while prioritizing legitimate traffic and discouraging attack traffic. Introducing a proof-of-work mechanism will discourage attackers by making large-scale attacks costly and impractical. The Tor Project therefore encourages users to upgrade the Onion service to version 0.4.8.

To prove that qTox does indeed have a remote code execution (RCE) type zero-day vulnerability, the authors upload and cite a GIF image containing detailed information about the actions accessed and executed. The image shows that for the execution of the attack, it is sufficient for the user to accept the communication request sent to him.

The new solution for this Bitcoin wallet uses Tor to anonymously route traffic to exit nodes rather than relying on Tor's backend while calling for people to raise money to support the Tor network.

Kaspersky said that according to its tests, "OnionPoison" targets victims located in China because its C2 server checks whether the external IP address of the victim's machine is from China. Kaspersky reminded Chinese users to check whether the Tor browser they use is downloaded from the official one.

In 2020, Tor co-founder Nick Mathewson began work on a version of Rust Tor, then renamed Arti as the official version of Tor, which has gone through several beta releases and has now finally reached the milestone of 1.0.0.

After analyzing nearly 200 posts on the Dark Web that provided initial access to corporate data, Kaspersky found that 75 percent of the posts provided initial access via Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), each with different permissions ranging from domain administrator, local administrator and normal user permissions.

Tox is a free peer-to-peer instant messaging and video telephony network protocol that enables encrypted data exchange. The goal of the project is to create a secure and easy-to-use communication platform. the combination of Tox and Tor enables completely anonymous peer-to-peer communication under the dark web.

This article introduces a simple way to access the dark web without using the Tor browser under Windows. Through this access, you can use the Tor node as a proxy to access the Tor network, and you can develop software to crawl the dark web and monitor the dark web.

XMPP is the Extensible Messaging and Presentation Protocol, a set of open technologies for instant messaging delivery, message presentation, multi-party chat, voice and video calls, collaboration, lightweight middleware, content federation and common routing of XML data. the XMPP protocol is still popular among users worldwide, especially in the dark web, where people are keen to use XMPP for contact.

By leveraging the operational security failures of threat actors and other techniques, Cisco Talos was able to identify TOR hidden services hosted on public IP addresses, some of which were previously unknown infrastructures associated with DarkAngels, Snatch, Quantum and Nokoyawa ransomware groups.
