Conclusion 26 2 Dark Web Investigation Guide 1 1. Introduction 3 Introduction 1 There is a lot of confusion about what the dark web is vs. the deep web. The dark web is part of the Internet that is not accessible through traditional means. It requires that you use a technology like Tor (The Onion Router) or I2P (Invisible Internet Project) in order to access websites, email or other services. The deep web is slightly different. The deep web is made of all the webpages or entire websites that have not been crawled by a search engine. This could be because they are hidden behind paywalls or require a username and password to access. We are going to be setting up access to the dark web with a focus on the Tor network. We are going to accomplish this in two different ways. The first way is to use the Tor Browser to get Google Chrome connected to the the Tor network. This is the less private and secure option, but it is the easiest to set up and use and is sufficient for accessing material on the dark web.
