Torshammer: Github repository

Introduction

Torshammer is a Python script that helps in performing Denial of Service (DOS) attacks. It is mainly designed to attack HTTP servers, but it can also be used for other protocols as well. The name "Torshammer" comes from two different words, Tor and Hammer. Tor refers to the Tor network, which is used to generate anonymous IP addresses, while Hammer refers to the tool used to launch the DOS attack.

Features

• User-friendly interface: The script is easy to use, even for novice users.
• Customizable settings: Users can adjust the number of threads, the target server port, etc.
• Multithreading: The script uses multithreading to make the DOS attack more effective.
• Supports Tor network: Torshammer can use the Tor network to generate anonymous IP addresses, so the attack is harder to trace back to the attacker.

Usage

The script can be run from the command-line. Here are the steps to run the script:

1. Download the script from the Github repository:

git clone https://github.com/dotfighter/torshammer.git

2. Navigate to the torshammer directory:

cd torshammer

3. Run the script:

python torshammer.py -t target_ip_address -r num_requests [-p port] [-T]

Here is an example:

python torshammer.py -t 127.0.0.1 -r 1000 -p 80 -T

In this example, the script will launch a DOS attack on the server with IP address 127.0.0.1, targeting port 80, and sending 1000 requests. The -T option tells the script to use the Tor network to generate anonymous IP addresses.

Conclusion

Torshammer is a powerful tool that can be used for both good and bad purposes. It can help network administrators test the security of their servers, but it can also be used by attackers to disrupt the operations of targeted servers. It is important to use the script responsibly and ethically, and to only use it with the permission of the server owner.
