VPN/Virtual Private Network
A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, is a private network that encrypts and transmits data while it travels from one place to another. A VPN secures data by encapsulating it in an encrypted tunnel. This tunnel is created by a VPN server at one end and a VPN client at the other end. The VPN client encrypts data that is sent to the VPN server, which decrypts it and forwards it to its destination.
