XSS is a forum tracked by the deepdarkCTI threat-intelligence project. Informational profile for defensive research.

No official clearnet page is on file, so availability is not checked automatically.
Identity confidence
Medium
Independent sources exist, but identity continuity has not been independently confirmed.
- Supports confidence: Independent sources: 2
- Supports confidence: No unresolved identity conflicts
- Supports confidence: Status history is consistent
- Weakens confidence: Identity cannot be independently confirmed
- Context: Never observed responding
Availability and identity are assessed separately. A responding endpoint does not show that it is operated by the entity it claims to be. Why this matters
What it is
XSS is listed among forums followed by deepdarkCTI, a public collection of sources maintained by threat-intelligence researchers who monitor hacking, fraud and cybercrime communities. When this profile was created the list recorded 6 addresses for it (onion and clearnet) and marked it seized.
Being on that list means researchers watch the forum; it is not a finding about any particular activity on it, and some listed communities are ordinary security-research boards. A reviewer decides how each one is classified before it is published.
This profile exists for defenders, journalists and researchers. WikiHidden publishes no address for forums in this category. Forum names are frequently reused after takedowns and imitated by phishing copies, so a site using this name is not necessarily the forum described here.
Availability history
Share of automated checks that received a response each day, over the last 90 days. This measures reachability only.
Status history
Every change of status, who made it and on what evidence.
