You can temporarily <strong>turn your own computer into a secure machine</strong>. You can also <strong>stay safe while using the computer of somebody else</strong>.

Tails includes a selection of applications to <strong>work on sensitive documents</strong> and <strong>communicate securely</strong>.

Everything you do on the Internet from Tails goes through the Tor network. Tor encrypts and anonymizes your connection by <strong>passing it through 3 relays</strong>. <i>Relays</i> are servers operated by different people and organizations around the world.

If you find an issue using one of these languages, please [[tell us about it|support]].

Pretend to be the destination server, a technique known as <i>machine-in-the-middle</i> attack (MitM). That is why you should pay even more attention to the security warnings in <i>Tor Browser</i>. If you get such a warning, use the [[New Identity|doc/anonymous_internet/Tor_Browser#new-identity]] feature of <i>Tor Browser</i> to change exit node.

<p>If there is no <b>Wi-Fi</b> menu, your Wi-Fi interface might not
be compatible with Tails. See [[Troubleshooting Wi-Fi not
working|no-wifi]].</p>

<p><b><i>Tor Browser</i></b> allows you to browse the web anonymously
and uncensored.</p>

<p><b><i>Persistent Storage</i></b> allows you to save some of your
files and configuration in an encrypted Persistent Storage on your Tails
USB stick.</p>
