INFOGRAPHIC: THE DARK SIDE OF THE INTERNET

If you're browsing online now, what you see is only the surface web, the part most of us are familiar with and where all sites are indexed by search engines and are easily accessible. But it's only the tip of the iceberg, comprising only 10 percent of the total size of the internet. The rest (90 percent) are what is known as the Deep Web, which includes the part that’s 100 percent anonymous: the Dark Web. In simple terms, the Dark Web is the hidden side of the internet. It's an area that evokes images of illegal pornography, black markets, hacking groups, botnet operations (those associated with spam, fraud, and malicious attacks), and the likes.
