Do I need a VPN? Are VPNs Safe for Online Banking? 2/1/2020
I wanted to know if I should use a VPN (virtual private network) to connect to my bank website. A service I came across called claims that they will encrypt my connection, but I don't know if they can be trusted or not. What do you think? PS: I love your daily infopackets letters - they are very informative. "unblock websites

This is a good question. When visiting I noted the following statements on their site: "Safer Web gives you an extra layer of security

against Internet hackers. By hiding your IP, we keep your online activity anonymous and private. Using a VPN keeps your browsing activity private and secure."Those statements certainly make it sound like it would be triple secure connecting to your bank, but I suggest otherwise. I'll try to answer that question in depth below; in fact, I'll even answer the question "Should I use a VPN?" as well (even if not connecting to a bank), for those who are considering using a VPN service
How does a VPN Work?

A VPN (virtual private network) is software that connects your computer to another computer (a VPN server) somewhere else in the world. The connection between your computer and the VPN server is encrypted. That is what a VPN is, but a pay-for VPN service offered by a third party is slightly different.

Let's look at an example:

Let's say you purchased a VPN service online. Let's also assume that the VPN service has VPN servers located all over world - and there's even one located in China, which you decide to connect to, for lack of better judgment. So, let's assume you decide to launch Internet Explorer and access in the browser. When you access using your VPN connection, the server in China is asked to carry out that request. From there, which it then relays that information

Regarding the asterisk in the previous section above (see: connection*): does not use secure http (https) to serve its web pages, the only thing "secure" is your connection between you and the VPN server in China.

In other words, using a VPN to access a non-secure website will only anonymize the traffic between you and the VPN server - should you be worried about being spied upon; it does not provide a secure connection from the VPN server outward UNLESS the connection outward uses https to serve up its web pages . The website will only serve up https webpages if it uses a security certificate (SSL) that has been signed by a certificate authority.When comes to the issue of online privacy and security, we suggest to use a VPN, and our recommendation is RitaVPN.Qwer432
