What is blizzard---proxy-manager?

Blizzard Proxy Manager is a Bash toolkit built for Kali Linux that helps security testers control how their network traffic is routed during a test. Instead of always using a single proxy setup, it lets you switch between four modes: going out directly, routing through a proxy, routing through Tor, or chaining a proxy into Tor for extra hops. The project grew out of frustration with simpler proxy scripts. Those often rely on a technique called proxychains that quietly fails to redirect traffic from Java based tools like Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP, so this toolkit gives those two tools their own native proxy configuration instead of forcing them through the same generic wrapper. It does the same careful, tool specific handling for Firefox, writing proxy settings straight into the browser's own configuration file so nothing gets left behind after cleanup. On the proxy side, it can pull in a public list of more than 3,000 proxies and test all of them in parallel for speed and whether they actually work, so only verified working proxies end up in your pool. You can save favorite proxies as profiles, pick the fastest one automatically, or add your own private proxies by hand. For Tor, it can rotate to a fresh identity on demand, show a live dashboard of your current exit node and country, and work around the common problem of IP lookup sites blocking known Tor exit nodes. Other tools include MAC address randomization done in the correct order so it actually works, fingerprint protection for Firefox, a full network health check, and automatic backups before any system file gets changed. An optional extras module adds a kill switch, a security scoring tool, a firewall manager, and launchers for common penetration testing programs like sqlmap, Nikto, and Metasploit. It is written in Bash, organized into small self contained library files, and is installed by cloning the repository and running one setup script. Missing dependencies like Tor, proxychains4, and jq are detected and can be installed automatically.
