Databases
Below are anonymized data samples extracted from DMDb (the DarkMiner Database). The # columns represent the total number of records in the database, not just in the sample. We continuously scrape new data and discover additional websites to make DMDb the most comprehensive criminal hacking database available for research. Academic researchers and cybersecurity specialists with accredited affiliations can request access to a full de-anonymized copy of the database here. Access requires agreement to our End-User License Agreement (EULA) to ensure responsible use and prevent misuse. Upon successful credential verification, approved requesters will receive detailed instructions for downloading the complete database.
