Abstract:
In an era characterized by digital warfare, organizations around the world are engaged in a never ending conflict with constantly changing cyber threats. A hidden area of internet known as the dark
web, has become a center for illegal activity, such as the tools used by illicit actors and the sharing
of sensitive information. As a component of cybersecurity, CTI helps identify and reduce risks that
arise from the undiscovered areas of the internet. Other than data collection, CTI's significance lies
in developing tools and techniques to extract useful information from the wide range of online
platforms, markets, and encrypted communication channels.
The quantity of Internet of Things devices made possible by hackers increases the likelihood of
exploitation through hacker resources. These hackers’ resources can be shared among communities
of threat actors on the Dark web. Despite rising curiosity in the Dark web there remains uncertainty
about the extent and volume of hacker resources that can be uncovered.
In today's digital era rife with cyber threats CTI acts as a defense against entities intent on
leveraging vulnerabilities, for illicit purposes. By utilizing technology and insights, from data
analysis CTI professionals work to protect assets and maintain the authenticity of digital
environments.
