<h2>Tor: How it works</h2>
<hr />

<p>
<a href="overview.html">Basic Tor overview</a>: what Tor provides, why it
matters, how it works.

<a href="cvs/tor/doc/tor-doc.html">Installing,
configuring, and running Tor</a>.
</p>

<p>The <b>design document</b> (published at Usenix
Security 2004) gives our justifications and security analysis for the
Tor design:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="cvs/tor/doc/design-paper/tor-design.pdf">PDF version</a></li>
<li><a href="cvs/tor/doc/design-paper/tor-design.html">HTML version</a></li>
</ul>

<p>The <b>specification</b> aims to give
developers enough information to build a compatible version of Tor:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="cvs/tor/doc/tor-spec.txt">Main Tor specification</a></li>
<li><a href="cvs/tor/doc/rend-spec.txt">Tor rendezvous specification</a></li>
<li><a href="cvs/tor/doc/control-spec.txt">Tor UI control specification</a></li>
</ul>
