Abstract

The present work sought to analyze, in the light of the scenario presented by the Deep Web, to what extent the instrument of police infiltration can manifest itself as a way of helping to combat crimes that occur in this environment. In order to respond to this research problem, Manuel Castells' basic theory of the network society and the deductive method of approach were used. Still, the method of procedure used in the elaboration of the research was the bibliographic one. In turn, the research technique of elaboration of records was used. In the first chapter, introductory concepts about the Deep Web environment were collected, especially related to its operation, crimes committed and its anonymity. In the second chapter, the theoretical-normative framework of police infiltration in the Brazilian legal system was analyzed, pointing out benefits in its use and difficulties still existing in its application in virtual crimes, mainly in crimes that occur under the cloak of anonymity provided by the Deep Web . It was concluded that, starting from an anonymity intrinsic to the Deep Web, police infiltration emerges as one of the main tools for the prevention and repression of virtual crimes.
