Whonix
Open Source GPL-3.0Anonymous OS that forces all traffic through Tor
Description
Whonix is an operating system focused on anonymity and privacy that runs inside virtual machines. It splits into two parts: a gateway that connects only through Tor, and a workstation that can reach the network exclusively via that gateway. Because the workstation has no knowledge of your real IP address, even malware with root privileges cannot easily leak it. Whonix can run on top of VirtualBox, KVM or Qubes OS and is a robust alternative for anyone needing strong, leak-resistant Tor anonymity.
