FBI Releases ‘Primer’ Successfully Infiltrating Darknets

Fri Nov 11, 2016 6:19 pm

The FBI has published a “primer” on Darknet Marketplaces (DNM) after disrupting the infrastructure of a market with an operation called Hyperion. U.S. law enforcement agencies said they have wrapped up a “successful” international operation, teaching them a lot about underground online market behavior.

On November 1 a task force made up of international law enforcement and the FBI revealed it was targeting DNMs. The FBI said the idea was conceived by a group called Five Eyes Law Enforcement Group (FELEG). The coordinated coalition consisted of authorities from the U.K., Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the U.S.
