What is Whonix

Let's talk about what is Whonix and what is the goal of that, Whonix is based on Debian GNU / Linux and It is a security-oriented Linux distribution with open source.

The goal of the Whonix and how it work

It aims to provide privacy, security and anonymity to the user. The operating system consists of two virtual machines, a "Workstation" and a Tor "Gateway" running Debian GNU/Linux based.

Downloading and Installation

First of all, we need to download the whonix file with the .ova extension from here; Whonix ™ for VirtualBox with Xfce and also we need VirtualBox, we can download both from there.

After finish the installation of VirtualBox and downloading of whonix .ova file we can proceed.

1. First open the VirtualBox
2. Click on Import
3. Select the whonix file with the .ova extension.
4. Click on Import
5. Accept the software license agreement

Now we have two virtual machine, firstly we need to start "Whonix-Gateway-XFCE".

After the start "Whonix-Gateway-XFCE"

And "Whonix-Gateway-XFCE" installation is done.

Now I want to show how we can connect another virtual machine (like Kali linux, Parrot OS, etc) to the tor network via "Whonix-Gateway-XFCE".

• First we need to start "Whonix-Gateway-XFCE" (It need to be open on background).
• Now which virtual machine you will connect to the tor network. Go into its settings.
  
  
  

• Open the Network settings and change it like on image.
  
  
  

• Now start the virtual machine.
• Edit connection (Parrot OS)
  
  
  

• Select the correct device and go settings after that change the inputs like on image.
  
  
  

And its done.
