Are proxies safe?

Many proxy servers have a reputation as security products that ultimately break security. Agents are designed to check network traffic for security purposes, so are difficult to maintain, and this complexity leads to security issues, creating space for man-in-the-middle attacks.This is because agents are classified into transparent agents, ordinary anonymous agents and highly anonymous agents.1. Transparent proxyA transparent proxy is used to access the target server, which is aware of the proxy and can identify the actual local IP address.2. Anonymous proxyAn anonymous proxy is used to access a target server whose server knows the proxy is used but cannot recognize the real IP.3. Highly anonymous proxyUsing a highly anonymous proxy server does not recognize not only your real IP address, but also the proxy you use. So it's always recommended.Highly anonymous proxies can do a good job of hiding local IP addresses and using masquerading IP addresses to access target sites, thereby breaking the restriction of site IP.

If your behavior is considered a crawler, it locks your IP and prevents the crawler from getting information.Note the following when selecting crawler Proxy server:1. Which protocol proxy IP addresses are required to support this work? Such as HTTP, HTTPS, or Socks5.2. Whether the number of IP addresses is sufficient. When the number of IP addresses reaches a certain number, different users can switch IP addresses at any time.3. IP address allocation scope. IP networks spread across the country, covering first, second and third tier cities. Therefore, HTTP proxy servers and services are very large.4. IP efficiency. There are many free IP agents in the market. Although there are many IP addresses, few are found available at run time. Wiring efficiency is not high, most of the wiring is blocked. It's best not to think about this kind of business, because it won't work.Staff with some crawler experience should certainly have the experience to explicitly modify IP, or be blocked, which comes to IP proxy security issues.
