  1. What is Onion Routing?

Onion Routing Advantages

General Overview

  • Advanced Security: Onion Routing increases the level of security since data is encrypted many times and passes through different servers to make it difficult to be intercepted by the attackers.



  • Anonymity: In Onion Routing, the identity of the sender and receiver cannot be easily identified because IP addresses are hidden.


  • 
Resistance to Traffic Analysis: Onion Routing hides the traffic flow attempting to distinguish and track conversation which further promotes and improves confidentiality and safety.

  • Decentralized: In centralized schemes, there is always a focus point for attackers, in Onion Routing, there is no such point due to the decentralized approach.



  • Evades Censorship: Onion Routing plays an important role in the bypassing of censorship, so the users can get access to the forbidden internet resources despite the laws of the government or ISP.



  • Protects Whistleblowers: Onion Routing can be used to safely whistleblow information since users identities cannot be revealed. 


  • Enhances Privacy: Onion Routing protects the users from being observed by the ISPs, advertisers, and other third parties since the information is scrambled and difficult to interpret.



  • Increased Accessibility: Extra access can be enabled to geo-restrict content or service with the help of Onion Routing.



  • Improved Network Performance: Onion Routing can improve network traffic flow by distributing it across many servers, reducing latency.

  • Flexible Routing: IPv6 provides adaptable data routing based on network conditions or user preferences.



  • Secure Communications for Sensitive Data: It protects credit card numbers, bank statements, and other confidential information.

  • 

Protection Against Surveillance: Onion Routing prevents network surveillance from the government or any other unauthorized access.

  • 

Cross-Platform Compatibility: As Onion Routing supports many OS and devices, it benefits a great number of users – improves compatibility and convenience.
