A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a service that creates a secure, encrypted connection between your device (such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet) and the internet. By routing your internet traffic through a VPN server, all data transmitted between your device and the server is encrypted, making it unreadable to anyone who might intercept it. This not only protects your data from hackers but also masks your IP address, effectively hiding your online activities from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and potential snoopers.
