CookieGuard: Cookies & the Dark Web

In the hidden corners of the dark web, stolen cookies are traded like digital assets, granting unauthorized access to online services and violating user privacy, posing a growing threat to personal security. Current forensic tools lack in-depth cookie analysis and dark web integration, leading to incomplete investigations and prolonged exposure to security threats. This is where our project comes in, we built a forensic cookie extractor tool that not only extracts and analyzes cookies from various web browsers but also integrates with dark web monitoring services. This integration allows the tool to cross-reference extracted cookies with known dark web databases, providing real-time alerts if any cookies have been compromised and are being traded illicitly.
