![]() Generating SSH key for accessing the server, doing the following ssh-keygen -t rsa, once is done you will be a file named id_rsa.pub on the.Generating SSH keys and blocking root access (minimum security controls) Log in to your provider and create a Droplet (Digital Ocean) machine instance, with a Debian 9 OS in it. A cloud instance server with DigitalOcean (can be another cloud provider) We are going to generate a cloud-based Debian machine, will be installing a Proxy Server called Squid3 for handling personal traffic to demonstrate how you can be monitored and easily know your destination and packets details using Wireshark and Tshark Network Analyzer. But, How to Set up your own Proxy Server? Leave this Terminal session open in order to persist the connection, and with the Firefox settings correctly placed, check your public IP, the network speed might be slower but you will be bypassing some privacy controls by doing this. The ProxyList will use by default the Tor network in case you won’t put something on the ProxyList in order to anonymize you. We have to comment the strict_chain option, basically this means that if one of the proxies for this list is down, the whole chain will be unusable.Īfter this, you can uncomment the dynamic_chain option, regardless if all the proxies are available the chain will work, dead proxies are skipped. Just apt-get install proxychains Checking configuration We are going to install proxychains, this tool forces any TCP connection made by any application to follow through a Proxy. I’m gonna be quick with this explanation because later on, I’ll get into details about this.įor this, I recommend using a Linux-Based OS (Debian preferable). Where you are going to add the IP address and the Port provided by the Proxy ServiceĪt this point, we are all set to start using a Proxy, but there’s some missing part here, we need to install and configure a Proxy Server. Open the Firefox browser -> Settings -> Advance Network -> Manual Proxy Settings This is more a browser settings setup instead of doing anything techie. - Client => Proxy (Internet) => Servers Great, how do we connect to a Proxy? This is commonly used for ISP for faster responses. This kind of proxy does not modify any information without any client configuration. - Client => Proxy (Internet) Proxy (Internet) => Servers Transparent Proxies Where the client can or not know about the proxy, but the server doesn’t know about the proxy at all Forward Proxiesįor this type, the client sends the request to the proxy and fetches the response on behalf. I’m going to shortly explain the types of proxies and how it works. The person or group controller of a proxy can see your traffic, especially if it is a free proxy. There’s a lot of paid tools that can be trusted, but a lot of people do not pay for this service. Have you ever think about what can happen if you use a free proxy service? Your privacy can be guaranteed?. I’ll emphasize network traffic in this writing. Most of the time people appeal for anonymity services to bypass that bar, one common element is the Web Proxy.Ī Web or HTTP proxy is a server that acts a middle man between two communications (client-server), in a certain way, this proxy will mask your IP address by giving you an alternative internet identity.Ī proxy is used for more than privacy, this tool helps to bypass filters, logging, and eavesdropping, caching, filtering blocking, manipulate and modify network traffic, and more. In a few countries there’s a lot of restrictions according to Internet usage, restricted websites, banned web services, or any kind of internal censorship.
