About VPN
VPN is an acronym for V irtual P rivate N etwork. A VPN provides an encrypted and secure connection "tunnel" path from a user's machine to its destination through the public Internet. Once the connection is established, you will be connected to the TVCC network through an encrypted tunnel. Passwords and other sensitive information will be securely transmitted over the Internet and into the TVCC network.
Virtual Firewall:
How can a VPN prevent a direct attack on your computer? Attacks are often directed directly at your known IP address. With a VPN account your home computer IP will not be see, our VPN server IP will be. Luckily our VPN server is behind some of the best known hardware and engineers in the industry who monitor activity diligently and make sure the VPN server is protected.
Anonymous Surfing:
Our VPN accounts enable you to surf the Internet without anyone knowing your true IP. IP's are often tracked and traced in order forms, websites, and for malicious purposes. If you are off our VPN right, you will see below our Database that will show your IP's origin country. There are even more extensive databases for tracking IP and location that can be found at http://www.maxmind.com/app/lookup_city. These databases are for sale and allow website owners, or anyone to utilize them with scripts. The above is just a small example of the information they can extract from your IP. When you have a VPN account at RapidVPN.com your IP will look like this to the world: show USA flag and reliable IP.
Hot Spot users preventing password sniffers:
Hot Spots can be found everywhere now, which is very convenient but also dangerous. Hot Spot hackers are on the rise, it's far too easy now for criminals to do. Using a VPN will prevent Hot Spot sniffing devices from viewing your logins, passwords and private data.
Watch Home-Specific broadcasts while you are traveling:
Local network news can be rather dodgy in some countries, and access to your favorite streaming television, sports games, and video feeds can be locked out while you are away from your home country. By employing a VPN tunnel connection, you can force your borrowed connection to access your home country as if you were physically there, therein enabling your favorite football feeds and TV and newscasts.
Avoid reprisals and traceback because of your researching:
Perhaps you are a celebrity, or you are an employee doing market research of your competition. Perhaps you are a reporter or writer who covers sensitive topics like war atrocities, violence against women, or human trafficking. Perhaps you are a law enforcement officer investigating cybercriminals. In any of these cases, it is in your best interests to make your computer untraceable to prevent reprisals. A personal VPN connection is the best choice for manipulating your IP address and rendering you untraceable..
