deep web recommended browsers
Subgraph OS is a deep web browser based on the Tor dark internet browser and does, in fact, use the same source code for its main build. As you would expect, it’s designed to help you access the internet in a free, private and secure way that helps to protect your safety and anonymity.
Just like the Krypton anonymous browser, the Subgraph anonymous deep web browser is built using multiple layers, as are its internet connections to the Tor Network to help improve this. Some of the other platforms included in this build include Kernal Hardening, Metaproxy and FileSystem Encryption.
Another great feature of this deep dark web browser is the ‘container isolation settings’.
This means that any malware containers can be isolated out of the rest of your connection in an instant. This is great for if you’re instant messaging and receiving files and messages, using email, or confronting other vulnerabilities while using the internet.
This is easily one of the most popular dark web browsers currently available, and well worth looking into if you’re looking for a safe and fast dark web experience.
- Firefox
Yes, we’re talking about the well-known dark browser available for free and competes with the likes of Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more.
In fact, all you need to do is access the settings and route your browser to connect through the Tor Network, instructions for which you should be able to find online.
However, before connecting, you’ll want to make sure download some extra privacy plugins, such as HTTPS Everywhere, to ensure you’re protected from malicious users. Using a VPN can also help dramatically in this case.
- Waterfox
While we’re on the subject of Firefox, we should talk about Waterfox. This is another variety of the Firefox browser (obviously), but with the connection to Mozilla switched off completely.
What’s more, this anonymous deep web browser is capable of deleting all your online information from your computer after every session, as does your passwords, cookies, and history.
It also automatically blocks trackers while you are browsing.
- ISP - Invisible Internet Project
The Invisible Internet Project is an I2P program that allows you to access the internet effortlessly, both the surface web and the dark web through a layered stream. Since your data is muddled and masked by this stream of constant data, it makes it much more difficult to pinpoint and identify you.
You can use both public and private keys through this I2P browser and also implements Darknet technology and a decentralized file storage system to help users remain anonymous; a bit like Bitcoin works.
If this all sounds complicated, then you’re right, it is. However, the hidden web browser gets the job done, and is a great alternative if you’re looking for something other than the Tor darknet Browser.
- Tails - The Amnesic Incognito Live System
Like the vast majority of dark/deep web browsers that exist, the Tails darknet browser is again based on the original Tor browser. However, this build could be better defined as a live operating system, especially since it can be booted and accessed from a USB stick or DVD without installation.
This is then built upon using highly advanced cryptographic tools to add the protective layers that ensure you stay hidden while browsing on the internet. This includes all files, messages, videos, images, and emails sent and received to you and your accounts.
To maximize the level of security you have while you’re browsing, the Tails onion browser dark web will automatically shut down and temporarily halt the use of whatever OS you’re currently using, really minimizing the risks out there for getting discovered.
Of course, this will all revert back to normal once the Tails system has been closed. Don’t worry, only RAM is used to run this OS, and your hard-drive and disk space will remain untouched. While Tor may be the most popular hidden web browser, the Tails system is, in fact, one of the best.
- Opera
Yes, we are talking about the mainstream Opera browser.
Just like the Firefox browser, you’ll need to go into the settings to change the router information in order to connect to the Tor network. However, once you’ve done this, you’ll be able to access the Dark Web as you please.
The reason we chose Opera is the fact that the most recent version comes with a built-in VPN feature. While this is nowhere near as good as a premium or professional quality VPN service, it is another layer of protection in case you forget to put it on, or you simply have no money for a VPN.
But then you probably shouldn’t be going on the Dark Web anyway.
Opera is renowned for its ever-increasing speed, and it’s growing community of users. This means there are more and more plugins available, all coming together to provide you with a great browsing experience.
- Whonix
The final dark/deep web browser we’re detailing today is the Whonix browser. This is another widely popular browser that’s built from the source code of the Tor Browser, so you can expect the same kind of connection and experience.
However, there are remarkable differences when it comes to the levels of security you get when using this browser. Since this browser is lightning-fast and uses the Tor network, it doesn’t even matter if some malicious code or software has root privileges, the DNS connection is so full-proof, it still won’t be able to track you; especially if you’re using a VPN.
What you’ll also love about the Whonix browser is the fact you don’t just have the ability to connect, but also has the capabilities to set up and manage your own Tor server. Everything you need to do this is available from within the browser and can even be run on a Virtual Machine.
There are several other amazing features this browser has to offer, but all can be found in detail on the Whonix website. In short, if you’re looking for a powerful Dark Web experience with all the extras, Whonix could be for you.
