Overview
A common misconception among the general public is that "it will never happen to me". While there can be varying degrees of cyber attacks, it's important to be fully protected against all of them.
For example, over 80% of websites collect your data, and many of them sell it to advertisers. This is a simple invasion of privacy, but something that we don't consider when browsing the web on a daily basis.
A more dangerous example is ransomware attacks. Ransomware attacks are becoming more and more prevalent every day. At the end of 2016, there was a victim of a ransomware attack every 40 seconds.
There are lots of reasons to why you can benefit from VPN, just a few of these reasons are listed below.
In this article
Encrypt your Data
The core feature behind a VPN is the security and encryption. Our VPN encrypts your network traffic to protect all of your online data. VirtualShield's network uses patented technology to encrypt and protect your private online activity from potential hackers.
A secure VPN like VirtualShield can even protect against the even the most malicious forms of DDoS and cyber attacks.
Hide your Location
Your IP address is your online address. It can show your city, state, country, internet provider, or even exactly what building you're in. This means that it can be easily traced back to you if it is left exposed online.
By using a VPN you are getting a completely random IP address that can only be traced back to us, leaving you completely anonymous and protected.
This is especially important when browsing the web at a public hotspot, like a restaurant, coffee shop or an airport.
Price Discrimination
You may not be aware of this, but many companies will also change their prices depending on your physical location. This includes hotel prices, airline tickets, and so on.
Using a VPN will allow you to change your location and get the best rates, no matter where you are located.
You can choose anywhere in the world you want to be, and virtually "teleport" there so that you can browse the web as if you were really in that country/region.
Internet Censorship
Firewalls, government restrictions, and other forms of blocking can be easily avoided by using a VPN. By masking your true location, connecting to a VPN will allow you to bypass geographic restrictions, allowing you free access to the open internet.
Your entire internet connection is passed through our servers to give you a private tunnel to the internet, preventing third-parties from seeing what you're doing online.
