Connect to VPNs
A virtual private network (VPN) encrypts your internet traffic, making it harder for hackers, ISPs, and third
parties to see what you’re doing online and intercept your sensitive data (emails, banking information,
passwords). Connecting to one on your phone will:
•
Protect your privacy
•
Encrypt your internet connection when using public Wi-Fi
•
Enable a secure connection to private networks (workplace or home) from anywhere
