Surikata-X Darknet Intelligence Methodology

DarkScout Intelligence employs automated, scalable collection infrastructure with full audit trails and transparent processing methodologies. Our intelligence gathering is designed for accuracy, coverage, and reliability. Surikata-X represents our flagship darknet intelligence collection system, built for serious analysts and national-level defenders.

Discovery CAPTCHA Extraction Classification Alert
1

Automated Darknet Discovery

AI-trained systems navigate forums, create profiles and personas, complete CAPTCHAs, and automate discovery workflows. Continuous crawling across marketplaces, forums, mixing services, fraud shops, CSAM hubs, narcotics vendors, and closed communities. Full Tor rotation with distributed infrastructure ensures uninterrupted collection.

2

Multi-Chain Address Extraction

BTC, ETH, Monero, TRON, and Solana addresses captured at scale with strict normalization and entity tagging. Automated extraction from text, images, and structured data sources.

3

AI-Driven Content Classification

Models trained to detect fraud, narcotics, extremism, CSAM indicators, stolen data, and illicit financial activity. The AI has also been trained to navigate forums, create profiles and personas, complete CAPTCHAs, and automate darknet discovery workflows. GPT-4V fallback handles complex content analysis.

4

Neural CAPTCHA Solving

AI-trained systems complete CAPTCHAs and navigate protected darknet surfaces. Neural-network CAPTCHA solving with GPT-4V fallback eliminates friction on protected darknet surfaces, maintaining uninterrupted automated collection.

5

Smart Transaction Learning

Links behavioral patterns, counterparties, and repeated vendor wallet migrations. Identifies wallet reuse patterns and entity relationships across darknet markets.

6

Post-Processing & Clustering

Every address undergoes behavioral similarity clustering, counterparty graph linkage, cross-market vendor correlation, entity scoring, and feed-ready enrichment.
