Sri Ranjani Venkata Murali, S Harshitha, D. Rubavathy · 2024
The Onion Routing (TOR) network has been specifically developed to offer clients accessing the internet or the TOR network with high anonymity, while also anonymously facilitating the hosting of servers. Nonetheless, there is a mounting apprehension regarding the utilization of specific servers for hosting hidden services that partake in malicious activities. The objective of this research paper is to analyse the current vulnerabilities within the security framework of the TOR network and propose a more effective approach for identifying the URLs of active hidden services hosted on TOR.
