The Real Reasons Why VPN is Necessary (Part 3)

Wow! As if the Part 1 and Part 2 have not convinced you enough to use Virtual Private Networks, here is Part 3. Today’s blog post shares more benefits for those of you who are globetrotters. Or those wishing to be but are confined in schools and offices. Read on and discover more reasons to love VPNs.

Access Business Network On the Go

VPNs are used by corporations not only to secure sensitive data but to enable their staff to access their company network and all related local networks while traveling on business or holiday trips.

Access Home Network From Anywhere

You too can access your home network using a VPN. It enables you to access a Windows Remote Desktop over the Internet to continue your personal or work-related tasks. You can get access to your local file shares. You can even play games or watch movies as if you were right in your living room despite being miles away.

Safely Use Hotel and Coffee Shop Public Wi-Fi

Public Internet access is never safe. It offers zero encryption security to its users. And if you happen to sit next to a hacker, pro or otherwise, that person can eavesdrop, snoop around and intercept your data. So make sure that right after you log in to a public Wi-Fi, log in right away to your VPN.

Escape Restrictive School or Office Network

If you are in school or at work, chances are most of your favorite social media sites are blocked. VPN allows you to find your way around these restrictions and connect you to the websites that you love. And the best part is, your local network administrator can never collect any data or evidence about your browsing activities.

There’s no need to postpone your travels, you still can access your work and local files in case you need them while you’re away. And you don’t have to worry about the security of your hotel’s Wi-Fi networks either. All thanks to VPNs. Next week, we will wrap up with VPN benefits for those of you who need some secret service type of anonymity with your online missions.
