Proxies for Cybersecurity Research in Iran

Threat intelligence and penetration testing require probing malicious infrastructure and testing defenses without exposing the researcher's real IP or getting instantly blocklisted. Proxies provide anonymous, geo-flexible vantage points for security operations. Safe threat hunting depends on disposable, untraceable IPs.

Doing this specifically for Iran means you need Iranian exit IPs — otherwise Iran targets serve the wrong region’s content or block you outright.

Iran’s consumer internet is served mainly by Telecommunication Company of Iran (TCI), Shatel, and Pars Online. Popular local targets include Digikala, Divar, Sheypoor, and Torob. Iran runs one of the world's most restrictive internet filters and sits under sanctions, so most foreign platforms block Iranian IPs while local sites like Digikala require them.
