In today’s life, we are surrounded by a lot of cyber security tools and we talk about our online anonymity, but are we really anonymous? A single mistake can reveal our anonymity, so here is a tool that can help us to make anonymity possible and it is called WHOAMI. It is very useful and has a very simple UI.
Note: if you are a parrot user then you have to make few changes in the script of the tool. First, you have to open the script where you will get an error and just remove the “\kali-applications” from the path.
Before we start installing this tool on our Linux we have to check few tools which are mandatory for this tool, those tools are:-tar, git, tor, curl,python3,python3-scapy.
Generally, these are pre-installed in our Linux but if you don’t have then you can just simply run the following command:-
sudo apt update && sudo apt install tar tor curl python3 python3-scapy network-manager
Now we are ready for further process, You can change your directory if you want and git clone the following URL in your terminal:-
git clone https://github.com/omer-dogan/kali-whoami
Now change the directory to kali-whoami and run this command
sudo make install
And now our tool is ready for use, we can open the interface of this tool by running this command
sudo kali-whoami --help
Now start the tool using this command:-
sudo kali-whoami --start
Here we have to choose options which we want to enable, for this just press numbers for enabling, and if you want to disable press that number again.
We have chosen all the options and the chosen options have the right tick beside the options.
The following are examples of the tool.
To change the MAC address of our device
To change the timezone of our system
To change the hostname of our system
In the following photo, you can see our previous details before using the tool:-
And after enabling all the options:-
After this feature, we get directly connected with the tor browser and can browse anonymously.
Here is a photo in where you can see that our system is connected with the tor browser.
To check the status of this tool use the following command
sudo kali-whoami --status
The tool is perfectly started in your system and your system is connected through tor network, and you can browse anonymously, and after you are done using, you can easily stop it by running the following command:
sudo kali-whoami --stop
Again if we check the status:
