Abstract

The Dark Web has become home to malicious, illegal, and exploitative activities. Due to the nature of the Dark Web and the browsers used to reach it, uncovering these activities presents grave challenges to digital investigators or law enforcement agencies. In this work, we seek to use state of the art, closed-source Digital Forensics software to extract predefined Dark Web activities from a mobile device.
