VPN:
The issue with connecting to any random internet network is that open connections are often vulnerable to cyberattacks. For one, business and casual travelers alike have no choice but to use open and free networks when the occasion demands it. Putting their devices on shared connection points means a higher risk of discovery by unsavory internet lurkers, with the threat of getting their data exploited or stolen.
For those who like to work outside the confines of home or the office, a VPN acts as a safeguard against open or semi-open networks like the free Wi-Fi provided by cafes, hotels, libraries, and other public spaces.
Some countries, such as China and Indonesia, have blocked popular online streaming sites, and content sites, including Netflix and Hulu, are region-locked. If you would like to access geographically restricted content, a VPN is the key to the digital door.
Here's a handful of highly rated companies to get you started shopping so you can see which VPN service is the best fit for you:
ProtonVPN
