Cyber Security for Absolute Beginners - 2022 Edition - Part 02 - Attacking Tor - The End-to-End Correlation Hack

The video tutorial explains the end-to-end correlation attack on the Tor network, highlighting how attackers can correlate traffic from the entry node to the exit node to identify users. It discusses the structure of the Tor network, including entry and exit nodes, and emphasizes the importance of using encryption like HTTPS or SSL to protect data. Despite these measures, Tor remains vulnerable to certain attacks, such as the tagging attack, where attackers modify initial connections to trace users. The video concludes by acknowledging the limitations of Tor in preventing these attacks.
