Hello everybody and welcome back to the third class of the first section.
And in this video we're going to be looking at how Tor works what TOR is and how it works.
So basically Tor is the relay of networks that we're going to be using to connect to the Deep Web or
the dark net.
Now Tor basically means the Onion Router.
So let's get started.
So basically let's understand how it all works.
So Tor is a proxy system a series of proxies that is used to anonymize communication over the Internet.
All right so Tor The Onion Router uses the Tor browser which has that is the tool that we're going to
be using to browse the deep web while the dark net.
So it encrypts data using the Anniyan routing system which is basically a layer of proxies that will
shield your you basically your traffic as you're browsing the deep web or darknet.
Now as you can see this is you basically you are the top client now that your client is going to go
through a node or a the first node is always going to be it's going to be permanent it's going to be
the same node every time.
I'll explain what a node means later.
So basically this is the true God which is the first node.
Now the first node is going to communicate randomly to the second node.
All right.
Not because of this randomization of the connectivity from the first to the second into the third.
That's why you're always gonna have a unique and different IP address all the time.
So it's going to communicate to the middle relay which is the second node which will then randomly choose
the third Lord out of you can see out of 1000 nodes that that door has.
So basically what what's happening is your computer is going to connect to a node the permanent the
primary the first node on the Tor network and then that one is going to randomly connect to one out
of a thousand other nodes which is then going to connect to another another one out of 1000 nodes.
So it's basically just randomizing your connection and shielding it through through basically these
different nodes under the different IP addresses.
And finally you reach the destination which is basically the server on which the website you're visiting
is hosted.
So as you can see there is actually a key here on this chart.
The encrypted by Tor it has the green line which as I've mentioned over here.
So once it reaches the and the exit relay which is the third and final node it and when it's that the
information is traveling to and from the third node to the server on which the website you're visiting
is hosted that is actually not encrypted.
So that really doesn't matter because at this point the data being transferred has nothing related to
you except for one part which I will discuss in the anonymity section of this course later on.
So basically that's how it works.
I have one more image here that I want to just show you how it works.
So basically basically as I said Over here it's going to have your computer.
This is you right here.
And basically you're going to connect to the first node this node is going to randomly select another
node and that's going to select another random node and then you have your exit node which actually
takes you to the Web site that you wanted to visit.
So pretty simple to understand how Dory's doing this and how it's shielding your information and how
it's keeping you anonymous on the deep web or the clear or the dark net.
Excuse me.
So that's basically it for this video guys.
If you have any questions or you want to ask me anything just let me know in the Q&A section of the
course.
Thanks for watching.
