MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521128938 A) filed by Symbiosis International, Pune, Maharashtra, on Dec. 18, 2025, for 'system and method for automated cyber threat intelligence gathering from dark web using anonymous network routing.'
Inventor(s) include Prof. Firdous Sadaf; Utkarsh Khuspare; Aryan Dhargave; and Saharsh Vaidya.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A computer-implemented system for automated cyber threat intelligence gathering and analysis from dark web sources is disclosed. The system comprises a processor and memory executing programmed instructions. An anonymous network access module establishes secure communication with dark web hidden services through Tor routing using SOCKS5 proxy configuration and circuit management. A content extraction module scrapes textual data using HTTP request handling, HTML parsing, and retry logic. A threat categorization module classifies content into ransomware, malware, phishing, exploits, distributed denial of service attacks, and data breaches using keyword-based pattern matching with weighted confidence scoring. An indicator extraction module identifies IP addresses, email addresses, domains, file hashes, URLs, and cryptocurrency wallet addresses using validated regular expressions. A risk assessment module computes quantitative risk scores based on threat severity and indicator counts. A repository module stores intelligence in a document-oriented database. An API module exposes RESTful endpoints with asynchronous processing. The system reduces threat detection time to seconds without specialized hardware."
