What is a VPN? |
MyPrivacy.cc uses industry-standard Virtual Private Networking (VPN) techology to create a secure tunnel between your laptop and the MyPrivacy.cc servers. When you connect to MyPrivacy.cc, all your Internet traffic goes through this encrypted tunnel, preventing any user from intercepting your information.
Without MyPrivacy.cc, all the information you send and receive can be intercepted by nefarious individuals because your WiFi connection is insecure. Public Wi-Fi is not encrypted by default, so all your information is sent "in the clear." Wi-Fi is a radio, broadcasting all your communication to anyone within range.
By using MyPrivacy.cc, your computer creates a secure, encrypted link between your laptop and the PublicVPN.com servers. All your information is encrypted (scrambled), so all people see is random junk. Your information traverses the WiFi link safely, away from prying eyes.
All MyPrivacy plans support encryption up to 128bit. This is the same standard of security which your typical Online Banking website uses. The main difference to a HTTPS (or SSL-encrypted) connection is that on a VPN all your in- and outbound network traffic is 100% encrypted and cannot be read by anyone inside your corporate network any more.
The main features of our InstantVPN services include:
- Secure 128bit fully encryption on all outgoing connections
- Security for hotspot wireless access users
- Anonymous internet browsing
- Extra software is not required
- Full anonymity by hiding your real IP address
- Protection against your ISP and overly strict fair use policies
- Bypass geographical blocks
- Bypass ISP blocking for VOIP applications
- Unlike a proxy, you get secured connection for all programs you are using
- Quality network infrastructure ensures a fast VPN tunnelling service
- Ultimate and unparalleled security and anonymity
- Prevents harassment caused by people tracking you by your IP address
- Get a safe/encrypted connection between your computer and the internet
- Use Skype and other VoIP applications blocked in your area
The best part is that you will not have to install or download any software to your PC as everything necessary to connect to our VPN servers is already installed as standard in Windows. Once you have placed your order and your account has been activated, you can find the instructions to setup secure your connection here or alternately we will provide a desktop shortcut that will configure itself!
