Every single day we hear about emails, social networking sites and the like being hacked. Recently my friend told me that he got a message that his email account is accessed in UK while he didn’t leave home on that day and nobody he knows is living in the UK.

At that time when I mentioned him that he needs an online protection by connection through a VPN or virtual private network.

Just because of my friends’ problem, I come to know that many computer users don’t even know about the difference between VPN, firewalls and antivirus software.

1 – Firewall

It acts as a barrier to block the harmful elements to access your computer.

Simply it is a program or hardware device that filters the data and information that comes through your computer. Whenever you are on the internet, it blocks any packet of the information that is red flagged.

2 – Anti Virus

This is software that only identifies and stops harmful viruses from entering your system. They also function by removing viruses that are already present inside your system like malware, computer viruses, computer worms, adware, spyware and Trojans.

3 – Virtual Private Network

As its name signifies, it is a tool to help you surf online with privacy. VPN is usually for the businesses or for personal use. Big corporate and firms use VPN connections as a replacement to their leased lines prior, so that they can get connected to their different branches in different locations to their servers in office. With a VPN, employees can perform their tasks form their home by accessing the files that are available in their office computer.

In contrast, a personal use VPN is used to protect your computer from being accessed by any other person, particularly when you are connecting to the hotspots.

You never think or know who is lurking around or waiting to steal your private information. So a service from one of the best VPN providers is one of the best ways to get protection all the times.
