Purpose In this document you will learn how to use the alternative ways to search the Internet anonymously using Tor and proxy servers.
Materials and Tools In order to get better insight about what we try to do here we need to know some terms that used in this document.
Tor: “Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. Tor provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy.
Why Tor: Using Tor protects you against

There some other tools may provide better anonymity than Tor. Since Tor runs on your computer this makes your system vulnerable. Using a proxy server will make your Internet access work more efficiently. It will work like a barrier between you and outside world. You can also use proxy server almost with chat applications. This provides better security than Tor. A proxy is “a virtual private network is one specific type of proxy which provides you with the ability to work remotely and securely”. The particular VPN will belong to you. This makes proxy more secure than Tor. Of course proxy servers have vulnerable sides too. “Proxy server will provide you with security and anonymity, the proxy itself has to decode your traffic to send it through. This means it can see everything you're doing, unless you use SSL connections. So you need to trust it.” Since both of them have dark sides. Instead of using one of them, it will be more secure to combine
Vulnerability 1: Injection – used to attack the applications in which malicious SQL statements are inserted into an entry field for execution.

Lab 8 Purpose Using sodium borohydride as the reducing agent, to convert a ketone (camphor) to a mixture of secondary alcohols (isoborneol or borneol). The product mixture will be characterized by melting point and functional group tests (TLC and IR spectrum). Pre Lab 1. Structure of Camphor NaBH4 used as reducing agent to produce isborneol from camphor Structure of isoborneol Isoborneol with wedged and dashed lines 2. Isoborneol can be produced by reduction of camphor by using the NaBH4 in Methanol.
Orbacle essentially acts as a companion toy to a smartphone. Its core processing unit is a Raspberry Pi, and it establishes a connection with the smartphone using a Bluetooth dongle. Orbacle will comprise of two components: a physical ball that can be controlled through the smartphone or voice commands, and a virtual pet called the Orbys that exists in the accompanying application. The motor system is a hamster ball component with an internal weight mechanism. The aforesaid commands will move the internal weight mechanism, which consequently offsets the ball and causes it to move. With a gyroscope and a proportional-integral-derivative tuning system, the Orbacle can perform accurate rotations relative to the user. Orbacle is also very durable
The objective of the lab was to program a vehicle to continuously drive in a one meter square. The square was to be completed in less than 20 seconds, and only the wheel encoder could be used to navigate the vehicle. All of this was done by using the Arduino software tool and the Redbot library to create a program that would satisfy the given lab requirements.

To calculate the effective diameter of the particles, we use Equation 1 provided below. To determine the effective diameter of the particles, we needed to have the hydrometer readings and temperature for each time taken, as well as using the Coefficient of temperature adjustment table provided in Appendix 3 and the Hydrometer 152H length readings in Appendix 4. To able to determine the Percent Finer for Hydrometer, we use Equation 2 provided below as well as Equation 3 for the Dry Weight of Soil provided below. For Equation 2, we also need the Specific Gravity correction for percent finer table to be able to solve Equation 2. The Specific Gravity correction for percent finer table is provided in Appendix 5. Furthermore, to determine the total
The new structure has been given a grant to make its network state of the art by making it a fiber optic network. The topics of discussion that will be mentioned in this paper are the hardware that will be necessary for the inside and outside of the building and how we would expand the fiber to an adjacent building if it is built. Another topic to be discussed will be describing the safety procedures that will be following during the installation.
Tor allows users to surf the net, chat and send instant messages anonymously, and is employed by a large form of folks for each licit and illicit functions. Tor has, maybe, been utilized by criminal enterprises, hacktivism teams, and enforcement agencies at cross functions, typically simultaneously; likewise, agencies among the U.S. government multifariously fund Tor (the U.S. State Department, the National Science Foundation, and – through the Broadcasting Board of Governors.
VPN is the abbreviation of Virtual Private Network. A VPN can extend a private network (like local network) across a public network, such as the Internet. It enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network, and thus benefit from the functionality, security and management policies of the private network [7].
The eighth lab was about the RC Circuit Analysis. The purpose of the experiment is to examine the resistor, capacitor circuit for different voltage inputs and study circuits charging and discharging behavior depending on the input function. To do the lab, first set up the circuit as shown in the figure. The first part of this lab will be analyzed a resistor and capacitor circuit with a DC voltage input (steady state). When we applied the DC voltage, the output behavior shown on the oscilloscope was just an impulse and rest of the graph was a steady line. We clearly saw that the 5 volts drop across the capacitor which was the steady line. When in an RC circuit connected to a DC voltage source, the current decreases from its initial value of
Today, society is affected by the many advances in technology. These advances affect almost every person in the world. One of the prevalent advances in technology was the invention and mass use of the Internet. Today more than ever, people around the world use the Internet to support their personal and business tasks on a daily basis. The Internet is a portal into vast amounts of information concerning almost every aspect of life including education, business, politics, entertainment, social networking, and world security. (idebate.com) Although the Internet has become a key resource in developing the world, the mass use of Internet has highlighted a major problem, privacy and the protection of individual, corporate, and even government
The Dark Web is a term that is referred to specifically as a collection of websites that are publicly visible, but hide the IP addresses (Location) of the servers that run them. Thus they can be visited by any web user, but it is very difficult to work out who is behind and using the sites. And you cannot find these sites using any regular search engines such as google. Almost all sites on the Dark Web hide their identity and IP address using the Tor encryption tool. You can use Tor to hide your identity, and spoof your location. When a website is run through Tor it has much the same effect.
As technology has propelled forward in our exploration of knowledge relating to computers and their science it is understandable that there are still areas of this field which may yet remain unexplored. One particular field being the Dark Web, which has been defined as an area of the deep web which has, “been intentionally hidden and is therefore inaccessible through standard [web] browsers.” (Brightplanet.) Although this web has evolved over the course of many years, possibly dating back to the 1990s and the development of onion routing, it has advanced itself into an industry which no one could have ever predicted. Further as well delve deeper into this developmental occurrence known as the Dark Web, I feel that we must ask ourselves how this has evolved into what we know it as today and whether or not it represents our future or past in dealing with the internet activities.
