SOCKS5 is a secure proxy protocol that routes internet traffic through a server, masking the client’s IP address.
It supports both TCP and UDP traffic, providing flexibility for various applications like web browsing, streaming, and P2P. SOCKS5 does not encrypt traffic by itself but adds authentication features, which helps prevent unauthorized access.
