VPNs on tablet

As business transactions are increasingly conducted across the internet, it is important to ensure the security as well as the integrity of the online data during transmission. Hackers and other malicious actors are constantly looking for ways to access private data for nefarious purposes, and businesses that have their data compromised may suffer adverse financial and other legal consequences. Of the various security tools businesses have at their disposal to secure their data during transmission, the most effective is a virtual private network, also known as a VPNs. 

WHAT IS A VPN

A VPN can be described as a tunnel within the public internet used to transmit private data. VPNs allow for secure private connections to be made to other sites across the internet. The data transmitted within these secure connections are encrypted and therefore can only be read by those who have the correct administrative rights to the data. In addition to data encryption, VPNs are also used to hide IP addresses such that users can protect their identity and keep their location secure.
