It is a hidden part of the Internet and has gradually become a place for illegal activities, including the drug market, child pornography, gun sales, Financial fraud, assassination of employment, etc. Most criminals use specialized tools to access dark networks, such as TOR, which enable them to access networks anonymously. As a result, it has brought serious difficulties to research and law enforcement personnel. To achieve active cyber threat intelligence in cybersecurity research, this paper proposes a hidden network threat intelligence analysis framework, which is primarily used to identify the sellers of the dark network market and identify the sellers who have the greatest impact on these markets.
