本研究提出分类体系与TF-IDF流程,检测Telegram上网络犯罪IaaS广告,发现其高度集中,为监测调查提供优先级参考。
AI 中文摘要
网络犯罪活动日益依赖于可重复使用的数字基础设施——包括托管、代理和虚拟专用网络(VPN)——这些基础设施通过犯罪即服务市场租用,并在 Telegram 等平台上进行广告宣传。我们提出了一种用于识别 Telegram 上宣传网络犯罪基础设施即服务(IaaS)消息的分类体系。该分类体系涵盖计算、网络和通信基础设施的六个服务类别,以及三个信任属性:防弹、支付安全和透明度。利用 261 条人工标注的消息,我们评估了基于关键词和 TF-IDF 的分类器,并考察了基于提示的大语言模型作为探索性基线。我们选择了一个 TF-IDF 流程,并将其应用于来自 167 个与网络犯罪相关的 Telegram 社区的 1,116,071 条消息。该流程为 207,244 条消息(18.57%)分配了至少一个基础设施类别,这些消息跨越 113 个社区。分类广告高度集中:单一社区占基础设施阳性消息的 50.3%,而信任属性分类器识别出其中 37.66% 的消息包含防弹声明。这些发现刻画了 Telegram 上基础设施广告的规模、构成和集中度,并可为监测和调查的社区及行为者的优先级排序提供参考。
英文摘要
Cybercriminal operations increasingly depend on reusable digital infrastructure---including hosting, proxies, and virtual private networks (VPNs)---rented through Cybercrime-as-a-Service markets and advertised on platforms such as Telegram. We present a taxonomy for identifying Telegram messages advertising cybercriminal Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). The taxonomy comprises six service categories across compute, network, and communication infrastructure, together with three trust attributes: Bulletproof, Payment Security, and Transparency. Using 261 human-annotated messages, we evaluate keyword-based and TF--IDF classifiers and examine prompt-based large language models as exploratory baselines. We select a TF--IDF pipeline and apply it to 1,116,071 messages from 167 cybercrime-related Telegram communities. The pipeline assigns at least one infrastructure category to 207,244 messages (18.57%) spanning 113 communities. Classified advertising is highly concentrated: a single community accounts for 50.3% of infrastructure-positive messages, while the trust-attribute classifiers identify Bulletproof claims in 37.66% of those messages. These findings characterize the scale, composition, and concentration of infrastructure advertising on Telegram and can inform the prioritization of communities and actors for monitoring and investigation.
