This guide guides your through installing tor in Kali Linux.
Why anonymity matters?
Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location.Installing Tor in Kali Linux:
Step 1: Getting tor service ready
There are 3 ways of installing Tor service in Kali Linux. You can install Tor by following any of these options:Option #1: Install Tor from Kali Repository
Tor is available in Kali repository, to install it directly from the repository open your Terminal and type this:apt-get install torIf no error occurs, follow the second step.
Option #2: Install Tor from Debian Wheezy Repository
If you can’t install Tor using the first method then you may try this option. In this way we are going to add the official Tor repository according to our Debian distribution. Not to be confused, Kali is actually based on Debian and it uses the package management from “Wheezy”. So we are going to use “Wheezy” as our distribution.Now open your terminal and follow these steps:
Step #1: Add repo to sources.list file
Lets add the distribution in the list by opening the sources.list fileleafpad /etc/apt/sources.listNow add the following line at the bottom of the file,
deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org wheezy main
Step #2: Add GPG Keys
Now we need to add the gpg key used to sign the packages by running the following commands:gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89 gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | apt-key add -
Step #3: Update package lists
Lets refresh our sources:apt-get update
Step #4: Install singing keys
Now, before installing the Tor we must add the signing key,apt-get install deb.torproject.org-keyring
