Overview

Tinyproxy is a lightweight, low footprint HTTP and HTTPS forward proxy daemon. It sits between clients and the wider web, forwarding outbound requests while applying access control over which clients may use it. Its tiny resource footprint makes it a common choice for a simple outbound web gateway, a jump host proxy, or controlled egress in a private network where a full caching proxy would be overkill.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships Tinyproxy hardened, fully patched and secure by default: it serves only the machine itself and hosts on private networks, and every request must pass HTTP Basic authentication using a unique password generated on first boot, so it can never be abused as an open proxy. No proxy password is baked into the image. Paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 support.

Common uses

Lightweight outbound web gateway for a private network
Controlled egress with per VM authenticated access
Low footprint jump host proxy for restricted subnets
