How Does a VPN Work?

A VPN works by masking your IP address and rerouting your internet traffic through an encrypted tunnel. To understand how a VPN works in your favor, first check what happens if you go online without one.

What happens if you don’t use a VPN?

Without a VPN, your IP address and internet traffic are visible to anyone interested in snooping on your personal information. Your ISP records your online activity and sells it to the highest bidder. Cyber criminals can easily steal your passwords, usernames, and financial transactions on public Wi-Fi.

Your internet freedom is also under attack when dealing with censorship and network blocks. System administrators can deny access to your favorite services (e.g. YouTube, Facebook, Instagram).

What happens if you don’t use a VPN?

With a VPN, your IP address changes which helps keep you more anonymous. Your internet data is protected with strong encryption as soon as you connect to a VPN server.

Your online traffic goes through a secure, private tunnel that no one can access. Not even your ISP, cyber attackers, government authorities, or network administrators. This leaves you free to experience the internet as it’s meant to be — without restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary uses of a VPN?

A VPN is a cybersecurity tool that allows you to protect your digital identity and data. It also comes with many other benefits like fast VPN speeds for seamless browsing, sidestepping connection slowdowns, accessing your favorite content safely while traveling, and preventing cyber attacks like DDoS and Man-in-the-Middle attacks.

Are you completely anonymous with a VPN?

You are not completely anonymous with a VPN, but you can boost your online anonymity with a top-shelf VPN. With PIA, you can encrypt your online traffic and mask your IP address to regain your digital privacy. By hiding your unique IP address, you can make sure your ISP and other third parties won’t be able to track your activities back to you.

Do VPNs slow down a person's internet connection?

A top-tier VPN won’t slow down your internet connection. It can even improve your speeds when your ISP is throttling your connection during streaming or online gaming. For example, PIA has ultra-fast servers, and uses the most efficient VPN protocols. This means that you can enjoy the online world at full speed, with no more stuttering or freezing.

How do I get a VPN on my Chromebook for school?

Download our Chrome VPN extension, to enjoy online protection on your Chromebook at school or anywhere else. It’s simple to install, includes access to the PIA MACE ad blocker, and works seamlessly on your ChromeOS.

Does a VPN make you anonymous?

No VPN service can make you 100% anonymous online. In fact, there’s no software application that can guarantee such a thing.

CyberGhost VPN helps you browse the web with increased privacy, security, and anonymity. It prevents trackers from logging your IP address and snoopers from gathering details about your digital identity. If you look for extra privacy and security, you should use a VPN.

You can even pay anonymously for CyberGhost VPN using Bitcoin via BitPay. The only information you need to provide is an email address. This means, you never have to give up any personally identifiable information.

What does it mean to be a No Logs VPN?

A No Logs VPN means that a VPN service doesn’t keep usage logs. In other words, your virtual private network provider doesn’t log any information transmitted through the network.

CyberGhost VPN has a strict No Logs policy, ensuring we don’t track, store, or give away any information on your online activity. We also underwent an independent audit. Professionals from Deloitte inspected our VPN servers and management systems, and concluded that we store no user data.

Go for a VPN that operates in jurisdictions without compulsory data retention laws. CyberGhost VPN is headquartered in Romania, a country with strong privacy laws.

Does a VPN slow down my internet connection?

However, CyberGhost VPN is engineered to mitigate speed loss. We have ultra-fast servers in 100 countries, and provide unlimited bandwidth. Connect to next-gen 10 Gbps servers in all our most popular locations and enjoy speedy, reliable protocols like WireGuard®, OpenVPN, and IKEv2.
