See Wikipedia:Tor (anonymity network) for more information. the traffic entering and exiting the network).
Additionally, although Tor provides protection against traffic analysis it cannot prevent traffic confirmation at the boundaries of the Tor network (i.e. One trade off that has to be made for the anonymity Tor provides is that it can be considerably slower than a regular direct connection, due to the large amount of traffic re-routing. It keeps a user anonymous by encrypting traffic, sending it through other nodes of the Tor network, and decrypting it at the last node to receive your traffic before forwarding it to the server you specified. Through this process the onion proxy manages networking traffic for end-user anonymity. Tor employs cryptography in a layered manner (hence the 'onion' analogy), ensuring forward secrecy between routers. This software connects out to Tor, periodically negotiating a virtual circuit through the Tor network. Users of the Tor network run an onion proxy software on their machines, which presents a SOCKS interface to its clients. Its primary goal is to enable online anonymity by protecting against traffic analysis attacks. Another important use is related to avoiding local restrictions that some countries impose on their own populations.The Tor Project ( The onion routing) is an open source implementation of onion routing that provides free access to an anonymous proxy network. Constant scandals related to the loss of privacy in the hands of big companies have led many users to try taking measures in order to avoid constant surveillance of their activities.
The other is a modified, portable version of the Mozilla Firefox browser with several special features that help you take advantage of the anonymous browsing system provided by the tool.
The first one is the control panel you use to connect to the Tor network which you will have to activate every time you want to browse anonymously. The program changes the way in which information you send over the net travels, providing you with a routing system that hides your data from your internet provider, so that the pages you visit, your credentials, and your browsing history will remain anonymous at all times. The TOR project (The Onion Group) is an altruistic initiative promoted by several experts in Computer and Internet Security that provides users with a tool to protect their identities and maintain anonymity and browse the web.
