This captured data can be more than that embarrassing message content, these packets of data also tell where you are and give out details about your device.īut with the Avira Phantom VPN, your data packets are placed in a secure and encrypted envelope – something like certified mail. Without a VPN, data packets sent to your devices can be sniffed out and read by a passerby (‘man-in-the-middle’ attack) or captured from the router itself. A BITKOM survey on cybercrime found 68% of users had antivirus software installed on their devices – but only 9% used a VPN. Unsecured public WiFi networks are known to be vulnerable to virtual Peeping Toms, but the use of VPNs among consumers is still shockingly low.
Avira Phantom VPN also masks your devices’ true IP address, enabling you to browse anonymously and helping you unlock geo-restricted content.
