What Is a VPN Server?

November 21, 2023

A VPN server acts as an intermediary in Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, encrypting all user data as it transits from the device. The VPN server shields private information and enables users to mask their actual geographical location, granting access to geo-restricted services by simulating connections from different global locations. It acts as a protective and flexible bridge, safeguarding data and unlocking access to region-specific online content and services.
