Why a VPN?
- Online Privacy and Security
- A VPN keeps your online activities private and secure by encrypting your internet connection, protecting you from hackers and intrusive surveillance.
- Access to Restricted Content:
- With a VPN, you can access websites and services that may be blocked in your location, making it easier to explore educational resources and enjoy online content.
- Protection on Public Wi-Fi:
- When using public Wi-Fi, a VPN safeguards your data from potential threats, making it safer to browse the internet on shared networks.
