Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.
Tor was
originally designed, implemented, and deployed as a third-generation onion
routing project of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. It was originally
developed with the U.S. Navy in mind, for the primary purpose of protecting
government communications. Today, it is used every day for a wide variety of
purposes by normal people, the military, journalists, law enforcement officers,
activists, and many others.

Overview:
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.
Individuals
use Tor to keep websites from tracking them and their family members, or to
connect to news sites, instant messaging services, or the like when these are
blocked by their local Internet providers. Tor's hidden services let users
publish web sites and other services without needing to reveal the location of
the site. Individuals also use Tor for socially sensitive communication: chat
rooms and web forums for rape and abuse survivors, or people with illnesses.
Journalists
use Tor to communicate more safely with whistleblowers and dissidents.
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) use Tor to allow their workers to connect
to their home website while they're in a foreign country, without notifying
everybody nearby that they're working with that organization.
Groups such
as Indymedia recommend Tor for safeguarding their members' online privacy and
security. Activist groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)
recommend Tor as a mechanism for maintaining civil liberties online.
Corporations use Tor as a safe way to conduct competitive analysis, and to
protect sensitive procurement patterns from eavesdroppers. They also use it to
replace traditional VPNs, which reveal the exact amount and timing of
communication. Which locations have employees working late? Which locations
have employees consulting job-hunting websites? Which research divisions are
communicating with the company's patent lawyers?
A branch of
the U.S. Navy uses Tor for open source intelligence gathering, and one of its
teams used Tor while deployed in the Middle East recently. Law enforcement uses
Tor for visiting or surveilling web sites without leaving government IP
addresses in their web logs, and for security during sting operations.
The variety
of people who use Tor is actually part of what makes it so secure. Tor hides
you among the other users on the network, so the more populous and diverse the
user base for Tor is, the more your anonymity will be protected.
