What is A VPN? And Why You’ll Want One

 One of the many benefits of a TeleChoice broadband connection, is top-tier streaming, browsing and download speeds. While you enjoy browsing and streaming with your TeleChoice nbn connection, you’ll want to know that your online activity is protected from prying eyes. TeleChoice understands the value of online security, so here’s a quick to what a VPN is and why you should consider getting one for your devices.  

People everywhere are becoming more conscious about the need for secure browsing and online anonymity. Due to this need for security, many people are choosing download VPN’s for their device, as it is a great way to protect your online information.  

What is A VPN?  

VPN stands for, Virtual Private Network and in essence provides an encrypted tunnel through which all your internet traffic runs.  

This means that when people try to access your information, it will be given the IP address of your VPN server, and not yours.  

Why is it important?  

Now, we’re not saying the special forces are watching your every move but so many companies make money off your data, making it so much more important to protect it.  

A VPN stops anyone from tracking your IP Address. This is especially important if you’re someone who regularly connects to free Wi-Fi hotspot, or travels a lot. You never know who is watching the networks you happen to be connecting to.  

Do All My Devices Need One?  

It is recommended to download a VPN on any device on which you do a lot of browsing or downloading.  

You can find great VPN providers online to help you get protected. 

Make sure that while you’re enjoying your TeleChoice broadband connection, your data stays protected with a VPN. Downloading a VPN will not affect your TeleChoice nbn connection speeds.
