Third line of defense would be to pay to use one of the anomyous proxy servers (you redirect all of your HTTP traffic through their service and pray that they don't roll over on you to the authorities). | | |  | | 12-26-2003, 02:24 AM | #3 | | | Re: IP Masking/Hiding

Don't you trust your firewall?
Pay for a proxy server... now, you trust THEM. I think they are
untrustable.
Why is it so important? What have you to hide?

What would you define as an 'IP attack' ? Did someone hit you with a rolled
up copy of RFC 791 ?

surfing anonamously (Http proxy) wont stop attacks. Its not the websites
attacking you. Chances are youre just getting the usual traffic (subnet
scans)

"Camera/Shy, a browser-based steganography application from HACKTIVISMO, will be released at the H2K2 Convention in New York City on July 13th. Camera/Shy was developed for democracy activists operating from behind national firewalls. It allows users to trade in banned content across the Internet. Camera/Shy is the debut release from Hacktivismo, a special operations group sponsored by the CULT OF THE DEAD COW. Hacktivismo offers technical solutions to the human rights community, and has over thirty associates from North America, Europe, Russia, Israel, Australia, Taiwan, and Korea." http://www.cultdeadcow.com/details.php3?listing_id=431
