Stay Anonymous - Printable Version

Staying Anonymous

If you are planning to be Black/ Grey/ Green Hat hacker,
then you will be really worried about you anonymity. What
concerns you most have to be "How to stay Anonymous?" .
So here are some methods to stay anonymous. These are
only some basic anonymity techniques and the more
advanced techniques will be lectured in the following
tutorials.

A. VPN

VPN is the acronym of Virtual Private Network. As from a
hacker's point of view, here are the facts that justifies its
need:

1) Counterfeit the lSP's packet detection measures.
Maintain your anonymity and boost by keeping your ISP
from throttling, inspecting and prioritizing the data sent to
and from your system.

2) Keep your IP address anonymous.
Prevent the places your packets are traversing from
identifying your connection information and location.

3) Hide your online activities from third parties.
As a VPN provides a secure tunnel to make a connection
to the outside world, it will keep the third parties away from
finding your online activities.

4) And of-course, prevent location identification and Geo
targeting.
Yeah! the title says it all.
To help you start, below are some of the FREE VPN's that
are available.

B. Proxies

Proxies are another less secure alternative for VPN's.
Proxies does the same job as VPN's as it hides your IP
when you are surfing through the internet. There are
different types of proxies ranging from less anonymous to
high anonymous proxies. One thing that you have to keep
in mind is that the proxies will not last for ever. The
available proxy address will change from time to time
(which is a best thing for staying anonymous).
Below are some of the Proxy sites that you can use as a
starting leveler.

C. Virtual Machines

I suggest you to use a virtual machine while doing your
stuffs. It is a best way to test your exploits without the pain
of buying a new computer. For White hatters this is a
heaven, because using a Virtual machine to test the
servers(Remote Administration Tools) without the fear of a
breach into your actual working environments. Now a days,
the RATS and ciypting techniques (will be discussed in
RAT and Keyloggers section) became far more advanced in
the favor of Black Hat hackers so that they can bye pass
the Virtual machine environment and actually do their stuff
in the host environments.
Below are some of the Popular VM's that you can use

D. Be Easy With Your DOX Info

Another common mistake someone will do is that, he will
put his details like nick name, email address, county etc
on their slaves for the sake of name, You should do it only
if you feel that much confident. As you are reading this
now, I am pretty sure that, you take my word for this. Your
confidence is what I say "Over Confidence". Don't put any
kind of information after you are done. There is a site Fake
Name Generator - http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/
which can help you generate some fake profiles. Believe
me, you can get random profiles with a lots and lot of
information from this site.

E. A Final Word

As I said in the starting of this tutorial, these are only some
basic level Anonymity tools whose service you can make
use of to stay anonymous. These cannot assure 100%
anonymity and if you did something Black Hat stuffs and
when you hear a door knock and see some cops outside
your door, don't blame me :troll:.
