 What is the Dark Web? What is the Deep Web? What's the difference between Dark Web and Deep Web?


Today in this topic we are talking about the internet and its hidden features and also explain about deep web and dark web.

What is the Dark Web?

The Dark Web is a word that states for a collection of websites that be present on an encrypted network and cannot be found by using traditional search engines or go to see by using traditional browsers. The Dark Web hides all site identity using the Tor Browser encryption tool.

First, you may know about the Tor browser and its ability to hide your identity and action. You can use Tor Browser to spoof your location so it appears you are using from a different country to where you're really located.


To visit a site on the Dark Web that is using Tor encryption, you need to be using Tor Browser. Just as the end user's IP address is changed through several films of encryption to appear to be at another IP address on the Tor network, so is that of the website. So there are several protective layers of magnitude more confidentiality than the already secret act of using Tor to visit a website on the open internet - for both parties.


Dark Web sites can be visited by any web user, but it is very challenging to work out who is behind the encrypted sites. Dark Web sites include the Disreputable examples like Silk Road and its offspring.


In March 2015 the UK government launched a dedicated cybercrime unit to tackle the Dark Web, with a particular focus on cracking down on serious crime rings and child pornography. The National Crime Agency (NCA) and UK intelligence outfit GCHQ are together creating the Joint Operations Cell (JOC).

What is the Deep Web? Dark Web vs Deep Web

The 'Deep Web' refers to all web pages that search engines never find out. Thus the 'Deep Web' contains the 'Dark Web', but also includes all user databases, webmail pages, registration-required web forums, and pages behind paywalls. There are huge numbers of such pages, and most exist for routine reasons.


We have a playing version of all of our websites that is jammed from being indexed by search engines, so we can check websites before we set them live. Thus for millions of page publicly available on this website, there is another on the Deep Web.


The content management system in which I am typing this article is on the Deep Web. So that is another page for every page that is on the live site. Meanwhile, our work intranet is hidden from search engines and requires a password. It has been live for nearly 20 years, so there are plenty of pages there.


If we use an online bank account, the password-protected bits are available on the Deep Web. And when you actually know how many pages just one Gmail account will create, you understand the complete size of the Deep Web. About 90 percent of the internet available on the Dark Web.
