VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. It is a technology that allows users to create a secure and encrypted connection over the internet, providing privacy and anonymity while browsing online. VPNs are commonly used to access geo-restricted content, protect sensitive information, and bypass internet censorship. They work by routing internet traffic through a remote server, which masks the user’s IP address and encrypts their data, making it difficult for hackers, government agencies, or other third parties to intercept or monitor their online activity.
