Explore the powerful search capabilities of GeoSentinel, from surface web OSINT to the depths of the dark web. ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐
๐ Advanced Web Scan
The Advanced Web Scan tool allows you to perform deep OSINT searches across multiple platforms and search engines simultaneously.
๐ ๏ธ How to Use

POST - Parameters:
query: Your search term or target.type:text,images, orall.sources: A list of platforms to target.aggressive: Set totruefor deep scraping of result pages.
๐ฑ Supported Sources
You can restrict your search to specific high-value OSINT sources:

- Developer/Code: GitHub, StackOverflow.
- Leaks/Dumps: Pastebin, BreachForums.
- General Web: Multi-engine aggregation (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo).
๐ Aggressive Mode
When Aggressive Mode is enabled, GeoSentinel goes beyond simple search results. It attempts to visit the top result links and extract the actual page content to provide a more comprehensive intelligence briefing.
๐ Dark Web Search
GeoSentinel provides integrated access to the dark web, allowing you to search across multiple .onion search engines anonymously. ๐ถ๏ธ
๐ก๏ธ How it Works
- Tor Network: If a Tor proxy is running locally (port 9050), GeoSentinel routes queries through the Tor network to access
.onionsites directly. - Onion Aggregation: It queries a vast list of dark web engines, including:
- Ahmia
- OnionLand
- Torgle
- Torch
- ...and many others.
- Clearnet Fallback: If Tor is not available locally, the system automatically falls back to the Ahmia clearnet proxy to fetch results.
๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ Accessing Dark Web Results
Results from the dark web are flagged with the TOR_NETWORK or Ahmia_Clearnet source tag. These links typically end in .onion and require a Tor-enabled browser (like Tor Browser) to open.
