ransomwatch trails the extortion sites used by ransomware groups and surfaces an aggregated feed of claims
please use the issue template when submitting new groups
content within ransomwatch.telemetry.ltd, posts.json, groups.json alongside the docs/ & source/ directories is dynamically generated based on hosting choices of real-world threat actors in near-real-time.
whilst sanitisation efforts have been taken, by viewing or accessing ransomwatch you acknowledge you are doing so at your own risk

groups.jsoncontains hosts, nodes, relays and mirrors for a tracked group or actorposts.jsoncontains extracted posts, noted by their discovery time and accountable group
this is a live repository that utilizes a combination of GitHub actions and a service container. it visits, parses, and reports on monitored hosts in near-real-time in a self-contained manner
content fetching is done with psf/requests - if rendering is required mozilla/geckodriver and seleniumhq/selenium are leveraged.
The frontend is ultimately generated with markdown, using markdown.py and served with docsifyjs/docsify thanks to pages.github.com
graphs or visualisations are generated with plotting.py with the help of matplotlib/matplotlib
post indexing is done with a mix of grep, awk and sed within parsers.py - it's brittle and like any Μ΄ΜΜHΜΆΜ€ΜTΜΈΜΜ

rendered HTML for each page is viewable within the source directory
- screenshotter.py a playwright script to generate high-resolution screenshots of online hosts
- srcanalyser.py a basic extractor for emails, internal and external links found within page source
- browse-hosts.sh a simple cURL based iterator for sweeping URL checks
- sources.zsh an aggregator of various locations that surface new groups for ransomwatch
- uptimekuma-importer.py a script to convert the group data into a uptime-kuma configuration file
- parsers.sh a health-check script that provides details on parsers that are returning no fields
a flattened version of groups.json with each host as its own object can be found at assets/groups-kv.json. the structure is an array of objects, each representing a distinct entity/group with each containing all properties (like name, captcha, parser, etc.) at the same level, including potential repetition on elements such as profile and meta. some data analysis tools work with this structure in an easier manner requiring less transposing.
fetching hidden services requires a tor circuit! establish one with;

positional arguments:
{add,scrape,parse,markdown}
operation to execute
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--name NAME provider name
--location LOCATION target web location (full URI)
