DarkOwl for Intelligence Agencies How darknet intelligence informs law enforcement and government investigations
About the Darknet The darknet is a series of networks that have been specifically designed to conceal its userbase.
Darknet sites are continually coming on and offline, with pages vanishing from one minute to the next.
Due to the layer of anonymity it provides, the darknet is often as a hub for illegal activity.
The Challenge of the Darknet for Law Enforcement and Government The combination of these characteristics poses a severe challenge to law enforcement and government organizations to effectively track criminal activity pertaining to their investigations. Even for the most technologically advanced investigators, the darknet can be a difficult place to gather intelligence and conduct criminal investigations.
