5. The Onion Router (TOR)
 Onion Routing (TOR) is a toolset for a wide range
of organizations and people that want to improve
their safety and security on the Internet.

6. How Onion Routing Works
 Onion Routing instead of making a connection directly to a
destination machine, builds an anonymous connection(route) through
several other Onion Routers to the destination. Each Onion Router
can only identify adjacent Onion Routers along the route. Before
sending data over an anonymous connection, Onion Router first
makes an Onion. An onion is a special data structure where the
actual data to be travelled on the network is placed at its center
and different encrypted layers are surrounded by it.
