How Proxies Work

How do proxies work? How do they protect your browsing history and habits? How do they change your IP and allow you to bypass firewalls and access sites such as facebook and youtube? What are the risks involved in using web proxies? We have all the information here. These explanations are valid for web proxies and IP:Port proxies.

Bypassing Corporate Firewalls and Government Firewalls

Let us look at the image below. You are behind a corporate firewall and trying to access a site called megasite.com, which your admins are blocking.

  1. When you try to access megasite.com from your browser, the request first goes to the firewall. The firewall then blocks this site if it is banned.
  2. When you go through the proxy, the firewall sees myproxy.com. As this is not a banned site, the firewall allows it.
  3. Once the request reaches myproxy.com, the proxy will fetch the data from megasite.com and return it. All this time the firewall thinks you have made a reques to myproxy.com

Hiding Surfing Habits from Governments and Sites

Let us look at the image below. You are trying to access the site www.sexysite.com from home. Let us assume that the government is tracking users to this site.

  1. When you try to access megasite.com from your browser, the request goes through an ISP router. This router will detect what site you are visiting and store the information.
  2. The site megasite.com will be able to detect your location through your source IP. Therefore both the site and the government know what you are doing
  3. When you access megasite.com through your proxy, the router sees a request to myproxy.com. The router does not know that you are accessing megasite.com
  4. The request goes to the proxy
  5. The proxy then makes a request to megasite.com. The site then sees the proxies source IP. Your original source IP is not available. This way the url you are visiting and your source IP is kept hidden
 

Risks to Using Proxies

The biggest risk is your identity. When you use a proxy all your details such as plain text usernames and passwords are available to be harvested at the proxy. Even if sites such as facebook and gmail use SSL to protect your password, the proxy still has visibility of your cookies. Someone at the proxy can use your cookies to access your accounts.

Some proxies use daisy chaining. This means a proxy uses another proxy. You can get chains of proxies. The longer the chain the less secure it becomes as more proxies get involved.
