This research focuses on understanding and identifying expert hackers within online communities by developing a scalable and generalizable framework that leverages text analytics and interaction coherence analysis (ICA). The framework characterizes hackers based on interaction networks and discussion content, revealing key actors and their specialties. This approach provides valuable insights for cybersecurity researchers and practitioners, enhancing the analysis of hacker social dynamics.
