Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, cyber attack tools and attack agency services are traded in markets called “Dark Web Markets” developed in the dark web. Through dark web markets, it becomes possible for anyone to launch sophisticated attacks. However, few studies focus on the analysis and the utilization of dark web markets. In this research, we focus on Botnet and DDoS attack agency services in dark web markets and investigate, analyze, and discuss the types of services, price quotes, market size, and the impact of transactions on the real world. We also monitor the dark web market and discuss whether it can be applied to prediction and prevention of attacks. Also, after the large-scale market control operations conducted by the police organizations of each country in 2017, we observe that different kinds of markets are rising. Our research presents three novelties: First, we conduct a statistical analysis of the dark web market, revealing the correlation between actual DDoS attacks and the timing of reviews in the market, which implies that the market is functioning for trading the attacks in the real world. Second, we analyze and gather the information obtained from the economically mature dark web markets and indicate the possibility for utilizing it for cyber security. Third, we also investigate into an emerging technology for developing dark nets other than Tor, such as I2P.
