cappricio-securities/ipchangerIPChanger is a lightweight command-line tool designed for ethical hackers, security researchers, and privacy enthusiasts. It allows users to automatically change their IP address at defined intervals by leveraging the Tor network, helping simulate different network identities during security testing, anonymity research, and penetration testing.
A powerful Tor-based IP rotation CLI tool that automatically changes your public IP address at a specified interval and displays it in a clean terminal table.
