K-12 Education HTTPS & Anonymous Proxies
Effective Internet
Security Demands Control Over Filter Bypass Methods
An anonymous proxy is a proxy server that hides
user requested content by stripping the "blocked" site's IP address
from the request. As the traffic passes through a traditional content filter,
the only information recognized is the IP address of the proxy server. If this
proxy is not on the filter's blacklist, the information packet is allowed to
pass and the user is able to access inappropriate content without administrators
and management knowing.
