    How do Hackers stay Anonymous and untraceable while hacking? This is the most commonly asked question and rightly so. To be completely anonymous and one has to do a lot of research and hard work to truly anonymize themselves change mac address, prevent DNS leaks, delete cookies, block javascript and much more

    But hopefully, our guide can help simplify the process. So in order to learn about hackers, we need to think like a hacker.

    Following are the steps hackers take to be completely anonymous and untraceable.

     Step 1) Make some fake mobile numbers and emails to Stay Anonymous

    Fake Phone Number to Stay Anonymous

    Having many fake mobile numbers and fake emails help you remain untraceable. You never have to give your real information on the internet. This helps you remain anonymous.

    Whenever hackers are hacking, and they need an OTP verification they use a fake mobile number which cannot be traced to them.

    Similarly, when an email is required they use fake emails for authentication and verification purposes.

    They also use fake credit cards for services they need to purchases so that their real identities remain anonymous

    Step 2) Untraceable Internet source to Become Anonymous

    For hacking on the internet, you need an internet source which cannot be traced back to you. This is the most important factor which many people forget.

    Untraceable Internet Source

    Now the way you can do this is to make sure you use public wifi which does not have any tracking. No CCTV camera or no logging system. Unless you know a proper way to bypass the login system I would not recommend using wifi with a logging system.

    Not all internet cafes have logging systems, especially in remote areas. They also do not have CCTV camera. This can be very useful for hackers to be anonymous.


    Step 3) An Anonymous-OS system to Stay Anonymous

    For being anonymous an operating system meant for being untraceable on the internet is required. Your operating system keeps leaking a lot of information which can be used to identify you.

    Kali OS for Anonymous

    So when you are on Public wifi and doing some sort of a hack. Make sure you use an OS designed for anonymity installed and configured properly.

    OS such as

    • Tails
    • Qubes
    • Virtual machine(With an external adapter).

    The second option is to use Kali Linux in live-boot format. Kali Linux is an OS meant for Hacking and pentesting.

    It can be booted from a USB directly. You need to make sure you set a kali Linux bootable pen drive with persistence.

    Kali Linux with persistence= All the files remain the same and are not reset on every boot.

    By using the live persistence mode you will not have to install and configure everything every time which can save you a lot of precious time while hacking.


    Step 4)  Change your mac address

    MAC address is the first and most used address used for identifying your location and system information. Your network card has a specific mac address which can be tracked to your device. You need to make sure that you change your mac address to be anonymous on the internet.

    For kali Linux

    Here

    wlan0/1 | eth0 < your network interface name may be different.

    Now for your Wireless card:

    1. Note your MAC address

    ifconfig wlan0/1 (note your current MAC Address)

    2. Now disable the NIC/network card.

    ifconfig wlan0/1 down

    3. Change mac address

    macchanger -r wlan0

    4. Enable the network card

    ifconfig wlan0/1 up

    5. Confirm that the mac has changed

    ifconfig wlan0/1 (confirm your spoofed MAC Address)

    For Wired network :

    1. Note the wired network MAC

    ifconfig eth0 (note current MAC Address)

    2. Now disable the NIC/network card.

    ifconfig eth0 down

    3. Change mac address

    macchanger -r eth0

    4. Enable the network card

    ifconfig eth0 up

    5. Confirm that the mac has changed

    ifconfig eth0 (confirm spoofed MAC Address)

    By using the macchanger tool which is preinstalled in kali linux you can browse the internet anonymously. And safely.


    Step 5) Use a Vpn or a proxy to Stay Anonymous

    Install a good VPN or a proxy. By making sure you directly do not connect to the server you will be more anonymous on the internet.

    If you want to increase anonymity, sadly, the trade-off is sacrificing your speed and internet efficiency. If the connection is to directly then it will be faster. But it will also be trackable. By using numerous systems between you and the server you are communicating with you can make yourself anonymous.

    VPN for Anonymous browsing

    More the number of proxies, the better will be the security and anonymity (and at the same time higher the latency making your connection very slow).

    Install OpenVPN

    Use the following command to install open VPN

    sudo apt-get install openvpn

    Running the OpenVPN client with the downloaded client config setup file

    The easiest way to install and setup OpenVPN client is to use the –config argument to specify the location of the downloaded client config file:

    openvpn –config client.ovpn

    Use Proxychains

    You can install and configure proxy chains by using the following commands.

    git clone https://github.com/rofl0r/proxychains-ng
    cd proxychains-ng
    sudo make install
    sudo make install-config (installs proxychains.conf)

    I would recommend proxychains-ng, and because it is configured to use TOR.

    Use multiple proxies to create a proxy chain and use proxychains.conf to manage the settings.

    You can use the following command:

    leafpad /etc/proxychains.conf

    Running proxy chains with Mozilla

    proxychains Mozilla


    Step 6) Disable all telemetry services for your browser and disable tracking services

    Many browsers have telemetry and tracking services which are used to track usage and compatibility of browsers with various systems and hardware.

    These services leak your data which can be traced back to you. So in order to disable tracking open your browser and go to settings.

    Depending on your browser and version the option might look a little different but the core idea is the same.

    For Mozilla use about:config option to access advance settings

    toolkit.telemetry.archive.enabled : False
    toolkit.telemetry.cachedClientID : Blank
    toolkit.telemetry.enabled : False
    toolkit.telemetry.previousBuildID : Blank
    toolkit.telemetry.server : Blank
    toolkit.telemetry.unified : False

    Step 7) Block cookies.

    Cookies contain information and code which can be used for tracking. This tracking is used for adverts as well as keeping track of views. These tracking cookies have code which can personally identify you.

    Disable Cookies

    Use the following codes in the Mozilla browser to enable only first-party cookies:

    Use about: config to access these settings

    network.cookie.cookieBehavior : 1
    network.cookie.lifetimePolicy : 3
    network.cookie.lifetime.days  : 1
    privacy.trackingprotection.enabled ; true
    privacy.trackingprotection.pbmode.enabled ; true

    These cookies thus pose a big threat to your anonymity.

    If blocking cookies is breaking your site then allow only first-party cookies. Many browsers give the ability to block cookies. For Mozilla and chrome, the settings are as shown below:

    Step 8) Block Plugins to Get Anonymous

    Plugins add extra code to the browsers API to give extra functionality. But plugins expose information about your system while they are doing this. The information is then used to identify potential users and customers for their other products.

    Block Plugins to become untraceable

    Only use the following plugins for extra security and preventing data leakage.

    These work with any Mozilla-based browser.

    https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/https-everywhere
    https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/noscript
    https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/random-agent-spoofer
    https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/no-resource-uri-leak

    These plugins mentioned above will help you get your anonymity and keep your identity untraceable. NoScript and Random Agent Spoofer need to be manually configured which can take a couple of minutes but is well worth the extra security.

    Disable all other plugins and only use the above plugins for security.


    Step 9) Do not use google

    Google has the habit of tracking everything you do in order to serve up adverts that you might click be tempted to click on. And as useful as the Google search engine is, there are many ways it compromises your identity.

    TOR Browser to surf untraceable

    So to get the best out of search engines without compromising your identity. Services such as StartPage, DuckDuckGo, or even TOR show google results but without storing IP addresses, cookies or records of your searches.

    All hackers use anonymous search engines to stay untraceable.


    Step 10) Turn off your location

    Location Turn OFF

    Web sites can get location data from your system if your location is on. Windows by default will keep this setting on and use that to determine your location, target ads at you and help identify you.

    Luckily there’s a way to turn that nuisance off. In Windows 10 go to Settings > Privacy > Location. Click the Change button and turn off the location setting. That by itself isn’t enough because sites can still look into your old location history. So, you make sure you clear that too. Scroll down to Location History and click the Clear button which says “Clear history on this device.”


    Step 11) Disable access to camera and other media and disable hardware acceleration

    Allowing your browser to access your camera and microphone as well as your system’s information can be a huge disaster if you are trying to be untraceable on the internet.

    Services

    These can be used to identify you as well as listen and record your voice and images. If you want to be anonymous the first thing you need to do is revoke all access to media.

    Now that you have disabled access to the systems media. Make sure that hardware acceleration is turned off. These leak your device info in order to boost performance.

    For Mozilla use the about: config option to access advanced settings

    gfx.direct2d.disabled : True
    layers.acceleration.disabled : True
    browser.display.use_document_fonts : 0
    media.navigator.enabled : False
    media.navigator.video.enabled : False
    camera.control.face_detection.enabled : False

    Step 12) Disable WebRTC (Leaks IP Addresses)

    While the WebRTC issue is often discussed when choosing VPN and proxy services, this is, in fact, a major vulnerability with modern web browsers such as Firefox, Opera, Chrome, etc.

    webrtc-firefox-browser

    So what exactly is a WebRTC leak?

    WebRTC stands for “Web Real-Time Communication” and it allows for voice, video chat, and P2P sharing within the browser without adding extra browser extensions and code.

    While this feature may be useful for some, it poses a huge threat to anyone using a VPN and trying to be anonymous and untraceable without their real IP address being revealed on the internet.

    For Mozilla use the about: config option to access advanced settings

    media.peerconnection.enabled : False
    media.peerconnection.identity.enabled : False
    media.peerconnection.turn.disable : True
    media.peerconnection.use_document_iceservers : False
    media.navigator.enabled : False
    media.getusermedia.screensharing.enabled : False
    media.getusermedia.screensharing.allowed_domains : Blank
    media.peerconnection.video.enabled : False
    media.peerconnection.video.h264_enabled : False

    Step 13) Disable Javascript to Stay Anonymous

    JavaScript can be a privacy nightmare, allowing web servers to find out information about your device as well as your location and hardware info.

    It can also find out what plug-in you have enabled, the size of your monitor resolution, and much more identifiable information. This makes it much easier to track your behavior. For maximum safety, disable JavaScript completely. Turning off Javascript can make the site unusable or unstable. If you use Firefox, the NoScript extension.

    Step 14) Disable Health Reporting

    Browsers like Mozilla have services that report how the browser and the system are performing. These services might be good for some people. But they definitely are not good for your privacy and anonymity.

    You can disable the services in the settings section of Mozilla as shown. Other browsers might have a different but similar option to disable the health monitoring service.

    For Mozilla use about: config option to access advance settings

    datareporting.healthreport.about.reportUrl : Blank
    datareporting.healthreport.about.reportUrlUnified : Blank
    datareporting.healthreport.documentServerURI : Blank
    datareporting.healthreport.infoURL : Blank
    datareporting.healthreport.logging.consoleEnabled : False
    datareporting.healthreport.service.enabled : False
    datareporting.healthreport.uploadEnabled : False
    datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionEnabled : False
    datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionEnabled.v2 : False

    Step 15) Disable flash

    Flash should not be run on systems that are supposed to be anonymous and untraceable. There are many vulnerabilities in flash which allow remote code execution and make tracking the people using flash very very easy.

    So if you are using flash you can be tracked. Disable flash in settings to be anonymous and untraceable on the internet.

    be anonymous and untraceable

    For Mozilla use the about: config option to access advanced settings

    plugin.state.flash : 0
    plugin.state.java : 0
    plugin.scan.plid.all : false

    Warning: Even by doing all these things you are not truly anonymous. These tools and settings only make it difficult to trace you. Not impossible. If someone really wanted to find you they will if they have enough resources.

    Also, this article is meant for educational purposes only and should be treated as such. We do not encourage black hat hacking. We condone it.

    So now you guys know how to stay anonymous and all but is that all you can do? Well, not entirely true. I gave you guys the most basic and simple ways you can opt to get anonymous on the World Wide Web (Feel it..!!). There are other ways too to get anonymous and leave no trace of what you are doing or what have you done but that requires tons of customization from software level to pure hardcore hardware level.

    In this article, all I taught you guys some necessary precautions that you should take while browsing. These days not only the officials (if you know what I mean) but also some third party organizations keep tabs on you so as to gain personal information about you and gain profit from it. The personal information could be anything, from a favourite clothing brand to your regular clothing brand (in-short everything related to you).

    So stay anonymous and stay hidden..!!
