What is TOR?
The Onion Router (TOR) is a network designed to anonymize internet traffic by routing it through multiple encrypted layers across distributed nodes. This process makes it difficult to trace user activity.
TOR is a key component of the Dark Net and is used for both legitimate privacy purposes and illicit activities.
What is TOR used for?
TOR is used to protect user anonymity, bypass censorship, and secure communications. It helps prevent tracking and surveillance.
While TOR supports privacy, it is also associated with cybercrime activities, making it relevant in Threat Intelligence and monitoring.
