VPN FAQ

What is a VPN?

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a software tool that encrypts and decrypts internet traffic, allowing users to access the internet without being tracked by authorities.

Types of VPNs:

• L2TP (L2 Adaptive Tunneling Protocol): Uses encryption to protect the data stream.
• SNIPE (Self-Nested IP Net Effect): Allows users to create their own network and protect their data.
• TBN ( tunnel-based Network): Uses the internet's public Wi-Fi to connect to a private network.

Why use VPNs?

• To secure your browsing session.
