VPN vs TOR (not looking for harm) 12-30-2012, 01:27 PM
#1
First of all, I'm a white hat.
I've been playing around for quite time with my pentester lab, but obviously, staying within my network limits I won't improve. Also I've done some ctf.
I'm planning to start finding some vulnerabilities in "pointless" webs (inactive webs or with low traffic) and check out my knowledge. The most probably is that the owner of this kind of web not even knows that I'll be "attacking" him, but still I want to be "anonymous".
So from this point of view, where I don't want to do any harm and I only need mask my ip, would you use TOR (random IPs all the time) or a VPN (static IP)

Wifi>MAC Spoofer>VPN>TOR
User Agent spoofer, better privacy, keystroke encrypter. (For Tor).
This is Kabraxis setup. His from UGN, so that's pretty secure.

FBI can still find out the Exit tor node if they want. Just use a vnp without logs on a public network somewhere else. And you're safer then tor.
And of course use linux. It doesn't leave any tracks like Windows does.

People will have to realize something here TOR isn't as secure as everyone thinks anymore. It has been to easy to trace your through TOR so please don't rely on it. As said above a VPN would be the best choice.
Remember, we do not allow blackhat activity on this forum. Since you haven't provided us with information about your target and you are asking for ways to secure yourself i will let this thread stay.

As long as you stop and contact an admin as soon as you find a vulnerability ie an sql error you are doing nothing illegal and thus won't have any repercussions
