Run a VPN Service with Tor Backend

VPNs and Tor serve complementary privacy functions. A VPN encrypts traffic between the user and the VPN server, hiding browsing activity from the local network. Tor adds multiple layers of encryption and routes traffic through three relays, making it extremely difficult to correlate entry and exit traffic. Combining both creates defense-in-depth:

• Tor over VPN - Users connect to VPN first, then to Tor. The VPN hides Tor usage from the ISP, while Tor hides the destination from the VPN.
• VPN over Tor - Users connect to Tor first, then to VPN. The VPN sees only a Tor exit node IP, not the user's real IP.
• Management via Tor - VPN management panel, billing, and support are accessible only via .onion, protecting operator anonymity.

AnubizHost enables VPN operators to build privacy-first services where even the VPN infrastructure itself is anonymized.

Deploy industry-standard VPN software on AnubizHost's Tor infrastructure:

• WireGuard - Modern, high-performance VPN protocol with minimal attack surface. Excellent throughput even on modest hardware.
• OpenVPN - Battle-tested VPN solution with extensive configuration options and broad client support.
• IPsec/IKEv2 - Enterprise-grade VPN protocol with native support on most operating systems.
• Outline VPN - Jigsaw's easy-to-deploy VPN solution built on Shadowsocks, designed for censorship circumvention.

Each VPN server is configured with iptables firewall rules, DNS leak prevention, and kill switch support. The management interface is accessible only via .onion, keeping the operator's identity separate from the VPN service.

A well-designed VPN service using Tor backend infrastructure typically separates components across multiple servers:

• VPN nodes - Dedicated servers running VPN daemon software, distributed across multiple locations for speed and redundancy
• Management server - Tor hidden service running the admin panel, user database, and billing system
• Authentication server - Handles user credential verification, accessible only via internal Tor hidden services
• Monitoring - Health checks and performance metrics collected via Tor, with no clearnet exposure

AnubizHost can provision multiple VPS instances to support this distributed architecture, with each component isolated for security and connected via Tor hidden services for anonymity.
