On Darknet HoneyBots

Abstract

In this new technological era, illegal activities shifted into the Darknet where anonymization allow free communication. Thus concerns from unsolicited movements are risen. A few research is ongoing with the purpose of investigating the TOR network. The current work is focused around integrating an advanced chatbot on the darknet as part of a research honeypot. A lot of research work tackled bots development, but none till now covered the creation of chatbots dealing specifically with darknet activities. Several techniques contribute in building chatbots, mainly Natural Language Processing (NLP). This paper consolidate the work done previously in [1] to elaborate on a solution that can be integrated in a darknet chatroom. Thus the algorithmic used for honeybots are described.
