Abstract | In recent years, understanding the people behind cybercrime from a hacker-centric perspective has drawn increased attention. Preliminary exploration in online hacker social dynamics has found that hackers extensively exchange information with others in online communities, including vulnerabilities, stolen data, etc. However, there is a lack of research that explores automated identification and characterization of expert hackers within online communities. In this research, we identify expert hackers and characterize their specialties by devising a scalable and generalizable framework leveraging two categories of features to analyze hacker forum content. The framework encompasses text analytics for key hacker identification and analysis. In the Text Analytics module, we employ an interaction coherence analysis (ICA) framework, to extract interactions among the users in hacker communities as topological feature. In Expert Identification & Analysis, we characterize each hacker with content features extracted with lexicon matching and structural features from the ICA component. Results reveal an interaction network and content-based clustering of key actors within the studied hacker community. Our project contributes to both social media analytics and cybersecurity research as we provide a complete analytical framework to analyze the key hackers from both an interaction network perspective and discussion content perspective. This framework can benefit cyber security researchers and practitioners by offering an inclusive angle for analyzing hacker social dynamics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
