Anonymous Surfing. Anonymous VPN. Personal VPN

There is a free market solution to the growing issue of government intrusion into private affairs, both personal and economic. It‘s called “VPN“ or, Virtual Private Network, and this is what one provider says about VPN and Anonymous Surfing.
VPN (Virtual Private Network)

Anonymous VPN Service
Key Benefits of anonymous VPN:
* Fast speed.
* No need to check regularly (as proxy).VPN servers are available all the time.
* Absolute anonymity.
* No provider logs.
* Anonymous Surfing
* 100% content encryption.
VPN is the most secure kind of protection that provides you extreme anonymity and VPN.
I should add that it‘s not about the access to porn or whether you log onto Second Life as the opposite gender that you really wish to keep secret. It‘s your economic life and career future that can be protected with this one simple step. A VPN account will keep your public identity and your online life separate – and that online life will be untracable to you. And if you think surfing for porn is a bad idea, even from home, consider what happens when your boss knows your home IP address and does a search for your online postings and activities by IP.
Or worse yet, your boss‘s competetitor. Or your competitor. Yeah, owning your own business means you are a primary target for industrial espionage – and most small businesses never think twice about their communications security.
And yet, the vast majority of espionage, worldwide, is for economic and business data; trade secrets, buying patterns, economic and financial patterns. One ill-advised email that can be traced back to you could sink your company.
So a little insurance seems like a good idea, and the happy side effect is that you can surf for porn with a good deal more security. That would be worth fifteen bucks to quite a few people … but aside from being it‘s own reward, there is nothing like a large, predictable flow of questionable materials to conceal your real worries. The best place to hide a needle is not in a haystack – it‘s in a pile of needles. So the best place to hide something you are concerned about being discovered having seen or written is within a pile of plausibly embarrassing materials.

VPN Service in Oxford

1. Introduction to VPN (Virtual Private Networks)
View OUCS service level descriptions
Some Oxford University online resources (particularly web pages) can only be accessed by computers that are directly connected to the Oxford University campus network. These restricted services include:

* Many electronic library resources such as TDNET, OxLIP and WebSPIRS
* OXAM (Oxford Examination Papers Online)
* Some departmental and college pages, e.g. some OUCS Shop pricelists

In addition, you cannot access files via Microsoft file-sharing unless you are using a computer directly connected to the Oxford University Network.

Access to restricted resources from outside the campus network is provided via the OUCS Virtual Private Network (VPN) Service. A VPN connection provides yor computer with “virtual” connection to the campus network – it then behaves exactly as it would if you were actually on-campus.

You don’t need to use the VPN service if:

* You are only accessing unrestricted services such as email, OLIS etc.
* You are connecting via the OUCS low-speed dial-up service.

You cannot use the VPN service if:

* Your are using a machine in an internet cafe, public library etc. where you are not allowed to install new software.
* Your Internet Service Provider blocks the use of VPN. The local networks at some other educational and commercial establishments do block VPN access. We also find that many AOL users are unable to use VPN.

Protection Beyond Anti-Virus and Firewall Programs
Anonymous Surfing protects your privacy and your identity by preventing cyber criminals from detecting your personal information and tracking your online activities.
Does Anonymizer Software Hide My IP Address?
Anonymous Surfing enables anonymous Web browsing which hides your IP address so online snoops are unable to track the sites you visit and build profiles on your Internet activities. By redirecting your Web traffic through our secure servers, your online identity is protected. Our servers are armed with 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology, similar to that of your bank.
How Else Does Anonymizer Software Protect Me?
Additionally, Anonymous Surfing also protects you from inadvertently visiting Web sites that are known to be phishing, pharming, or spyware sites. If you unknowingly attempt to visit one of these sites, a warning page will display to notify you of the hidden dangers that are lurking ahead.
How Does Anonymous Surfing Protect Against Phishing, Pharming and Evil Twin Attacks?
Engineered with your protection in mind, Anonymizer’s anonymous web browsing capabilities are among the safest and most secure available for consumers. Because there is a need for more than just another IP hider for anonymous Web browsing, Anonymous Surfing includes much more protection for you.
Phishing
Phishing threats lure unsuspecting email recipients into clicking a link in an email that appears to be from their bank. The email asks them to update their account information. However, these clever scams are simply trying to steal your personal information, credit card information, and more.
Anonymous Surfing has a real-time anti-phishing feed that integrates into your Web browser protecting you against phishing scams. Updated every fifteen minutes, this added protection automatically displays a warning to notify you that you are being led to a known phishing site.
Pharming
Pharming attacks are similar to phishing in nature, but they don’t rely on you clicking on a fraudulent email. Pharming attacks are even more dangerous because they are able to redirect you to a fraudulent Web site even if you type the URL into your Internet browser.
Anonymous Surfing protects against pharming threats by routing all of your Internet traffic through our hardened, secure servers. In addition, when you have Anonymous Surfing activated, your Host file is never accessed so even if it’s corrupted, you will still arrive at your intended destination safely.
Evil Twins
Evil twins trick wireless users into connecting a laptop or PDA to a tainted hotspot by posing as a legitimate wi-fi provider. Once you connect to their wireless network, the evil twins can watch your online activities and steal your confidential information such as account numbers and passwords.
Anonymous Surfing protects against evil twins by routing all of your Internet traffic through our secure servers, thus bypassing the fraudulent hotspot.
Is There an Enterprise Version?
Yes! The requirements of the enterprise sector are different than a consumer so specific products have been developed for you such as anonymous Web harvesting and open source intelligence. Please visit the enterprise or government pages for more information.
