Surfing safe and anonymously on a public Wi-Fi network by using a VPN
Public Wi-Fi networks are very convenient. You can pick your favourite cafe to go and work there on your notebook. With all your mobile devices you can surf the web when you are at the airport or in any other public place. We normally don’t ask ourselves how secure or unsecure such a public Wi-Fi network is. At home we secure our wireless network with passwords, filters on MAC-addresses etc. You don’t have this with a public Wi-Fi network. Because of a VPN you can surf safe and anonymously on a public Wi-Fi network.
Hackers attack on a public Wi-Fi network
You do not need to be a super hacker to steal someone’s data on a public Wi-Fi network. The security is minimal. All mobile devices gain access to a public network. A hacker with a little basic knowledge of wireless networks can access your personal data without any big problems. Your activities can also be perfectly followed on a public network by hackers or the authorities. Not very ideal when you want to send sensitive or secret information on the web.
Safe and anonymous surfing with a VPN
There is a way to completely anonymously and safely surf on a public Wi-Fi network. A VPN, which means Virtual Private Network, ensures that your data will be encrypted. If a hacker would succeed to access the data that you are sending, he would not be able to do anything with the encrypted data. The VPN connection guarantees your anonymity. The real address of the device cannot be traced. This also means that the location at which you are, will remain unknown.
Multiple advantages of a VPN connection
Besides the fact that a VPN connection ensures anonymity and security, there are also other advantages. Your real location remains unknown so you can pretend that you’re in another country. This gives you the opportunity to get access to the full website that is not accessible in your own country. To watch the complete American Netflix library is something that is normally not possible, however you can perfectly do this with a VPN connection. Getting access to all YouTube videos in every country you are is not a problem. Read also: Visit blocked websites with a VPN connection.VPN download
