About this talk
SARAH LEWIS MARCH 13 // TRACK 1 // 13:00 TO 14:00 The Dark Web has developed an ominous reputation within the security landscape. Misunderstood by both experts and outsiders, it is described as “anonymous”, “impenetrable” and “a safe place for criminals”. This talk will present the results of new research and demonstrate how the Dark Web fails to live up to its own hype & speculation. In addition, this talk will explore techniques that can be used to unmask hidden services and how small innocuous, information leaks can have devastating consequences for darknet operators. Finally, this talk will present a vision for the future of the dark web, a look at how today’s technologies will mold this corner of the internet and how law enforcement are unequipped to tackle the consequences.
