Onion Harvester: First step to TOR Search Engines

Knowing all possible web paths in the world is the initial step for making a search engine (SE). By means of  SE one can analyze the web for the material he/she likes. In normal Domain Name System, each TLD provider (Top Level Domain) can sell or release list of all its domains. As an example .com TLD can sell or release all the domains which are end with “.com“. But the problem is more complicated in TOR (or other hidden service providers). In this post I will talk about my tool named Onion Harvester and how to find initial points for finding hidden services to be crawled.

Introduction to Cryptography and PGP 1

“Introduction to Cryptography and PGP” Workshop

I have a workshop titled “Introduction to Cryptography and PGP” at Urmia University of Technology. I talked about basic concepts of signature and encryption using asymmetric cryptography. Then I talked about PGP which is one of the main usages of this system. I followed the workshop with configuring Thunderbird and GPG4win for applying PGP in Email system. You may find the contents in my previous post about GPG in Thunderbird and the way PGP works.
