20 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:21,180 How does it work in the importance of knowing your IP address and how you're able to get detected through 21 00:01:21,180 --> 00:01:22,180 your IP address? 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:28,770 This is something that essentially lets people know your location, your device, and it's something 23 00:01:28,770 --> 00:01:32,550 that you want to make sure that you are aware of all times. 24 00:01:32,550 --> 00:01:35,220 Right, as far as your IP address on your device. 25 00:01:35,730 --> 00:01:38,050 And then we're going to go over the Tor browser. 26 00:01:38,220 --> 00:01:42,690 This is a browser specifically set up to be able to hide your identity. 27 00:01:42,690 --> 00:01:48,900 And then we're also going to go over the ANANA surf and then using a VPN where we're going to be able 28 00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:55,650 to set up a virtual private network and be able to connect through that so we can access different websites, 29 00:01:55,650 --> 00:01:56,730 different information. 30 00:01:56,940 --> 00:01:59,460 So we're essentially hiding all of our traps. 31 00:01:59,460 --> 00:02:05,670 And then we're going to go over understanding public Wi-Fi versus home Wi-Fi and then a virtual private 32 00:02:05,670 --> 00:02:09,990 server recommendation from Digital Ocean for about six dollars a month. 33 00:02:10,050 --> 00:02:11,310 Very inexpensive. 34 00:02:11,340 --> 00:02:16,530 So why is it important here, first and foremost, to remain private on the Web? 35 00:02:16,540 --> 00:02:22,290 If you think about it, privacy can be defined as a state or condition of being free from being observed 36 00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:24,200 or disturbed by other people. 37 00:02:24,210 --> 00:02:28,700 So you are essentially hiding all information about you. 38 00:02:28,740 --> 00:02:32,400 You can be essentially in a whole nother country, right. 39 00:02:32,430 --> 00:02:38,550 In a whole different continent, and then have a specific IP address that says that you are in the states. 40 00:02:38,550 --> 00:02:38,820 Right. 41 00:02:38,850 --> 00:02:45,450 So for our purposes, for what we're doing for ethical hacking practices, we want and prefer for people 42 00:02:45,450 --> 00:02:50,280 not to be able to know what we're doing and know who we are, where we're located. 43 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:50,580 Right. 44 00:02:50,580 --> 00:02:55,290 We can be in a different continent, different country, but we want to be able to change that information 45 00:02:55,290 --> 00:02:57,690 so we're not able to be identified. 46 00:02:57,690 --> 00:02:57,970 Right. 47 00:02:58,020 --> 00:02:59,950 Completely remaining anonymous. 48 00:02:59,970 --> 00:03:06,420 And like I mentioned previously, we're wanting to mimic exactly what an actual black hacker would be 49 00:03:06,420 --> 00:03:06,900 doing. 50 00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:11,820 Right, so that we can find different loopholes that they would be able to exploit. 51 00:03:11,820 --> 00:03:12,090 Right. 52 00:03:12,090 --> 00:03:16,470 And be able to cover those, because that's essentially what an ethical hacker is. 53 00:03:16,470 --> 00:03:23,220 We are essentially looking at things from a perspective of a black hacker and how they would go about 54 00:03:23,220 --> 00:03:28,030 exploiting different loopholes so we can cover those and patch any of those books. 55 00:03:28,050 --> 00:03:29,670 And so a quick disclaimer here. 56 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:35,910 Anything that you learn from this section or really any section within this course is purely for educational 57 00:03:35,910 --> 00:03:39,360 purposes and is meant to be used for ethical hacking only. 58 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:39,740 Right. 59 00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:46,890 We do not advocate or approve anyone using these techniques to perform any type of malicious attacks 60 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:51,330 against any device or network unless given permission to do so prior. 61 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:57,660 OK, so finding your IP address, a quick and easy way to find your public IP address as to literally 62 00:03:57,660 --> 00:04:01,830 go to Google and type in what's my IP or my IP address. 63 00:04:01,830 --> 00:04:05,850 And it's going to pull that up very quickly, very easily for you to be able to see. 64 00:04:05,850 --> 00:04:10,230 So all you got to do is literally go to Google, type in what's my IP?
