The VPN heavily encrypts all your internet traffic, even before it reaches the VPN’s server.
A VPN guides your data traffic through a much safer tunnel called “VPN-tunnel”. This makes it much harder for others, such as governments and hackers, to intercept and view your data.
It is therefore highly recommended to use a VPN when using (dangerous) public WiFi-networks. Though it can also be very important to have this extra layer of security at home or at work.
Providers like APMG-NET offer top of the line, AES 256 levels of encryption.
Google recently achieved a milestone in quantum computing so its system can outperform classical supercomputers. These new supercomputers can perform so many calculations at once that cryptographic techniques are less safe.
However, experts were quick to ensure that “breaking encryption…remains a distant hope. That’s still many years out”. It also does not mean that encryption and VPNs are now worthless.
There is only one corporation in the world that has this technology, it is incredibly expensive and resource-heavy. Google will want to make this technology profitable for them. Cracking VPN encryption is not a logical or profitable use for such a quantum computer. Moreover, Google was able to crack one specific problem in one specific session, and it was built to solve this one, specific, convoluted problem. This does not mean all forms of encryption are now vulnerable to this computer.
Finally, the coming of quantum computers will likely also pave the way for quantum encryption, if you know what I mean.
How a VPN offers online anonymity and privacy as well
You will not be surfing the web with your IP address publicly available.
Your personal IP address will be hidden (it will change to the VPN Server’s IP) for everyone else as soon as you connect with the VPN server. Normally, others can link your online actions to your identity and your location based on your IP address.
For instance, your internet service provider, the websites you visit and many governments can generally see everything you do online. However, when you use a VPN, your online actions can only be traced to the VPN server, but no longer to you (unles, of course, you’re logged in to a certain website).
Many VPN providers like us won’t disclose or even monitor what you do via their servers. You’ve thus become much more anonymous on the internet since you can’t be identified or traced through your IP address.
