Up to 25 percent of people using the internet are using a VPN, and for good reasons.

VPN stands for virtual private network, and it gives you piece of mind that your data is safe.

A VPN will encrypt your traffic so hackers can't access your data, and hides your location and IP address so you can stay anonymous.

It also gives you the option of bypassing geolocation blocks when you're overseas.
