It uses two VMs, the gateway vm and the workstation vm.
the workstation vm is the linux box with the GUI and connects to the gateway vm.
so you do all your work and browsing in a guest machine where everything is routed through TOR.
regarding encryption, thats a loaded statement. read up on what specifically you want and see if it has it.
- bigtunacan 10y agoThe VMs are just another measure added for anonymity not privacy. Specifically with regards to security we take anonymity to mean generally speaking protecting who we are and privacy to mean protecting what we are doing. As an example; when I log in to my bank account this should be using a secure connection, but if I'm doing this from an internet cafe connecting to an untrusted wifi network I could be at risk that someone is ARP spoofing + SSL stripping. To not put myself at risk I would use a VPN with end to end encryption. This is privacy; I want to protect my banking data, but it does not provide anonymity; I do not care that anyone knows I'm checking my bank account so long as they can't steal my login/password.
