Abstract

The proliferation of cyber threats originating from the dark web has necessitated advanced methodologies for threat intelligence gathering and analysis. This paper explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) techniques in augmenting traditional threat hunting practices. By leveraging machine learning algorithms and sophisticated linguistic analysis, cybersecurity professionals can now extract actionable intelligence from unstructured dark web communications, forum discussions, and threat actor narratives. This comprehensive review examines current state-of-the-art approaches, challenges, and future directions in AI-augmented threat hunting, with particular emphasis on NLP applications for dark web threat intelligence analysis.
