A virtual private network (VPN) is used to securely connect to another network over a insecure network.

True or False

Answer: True

The answer is True.

Explanation:

A Virtual Private Network is a type of network that allows computers and other devices to communicate with each other using encrypted connection over vulnerable or insecure network like the internet or public connections. The reason why it is secured because it used protocols or rules which every data is encrypted during its travel on the network. (Example: Upon sending, it is wrapped in codes, and upon receiving of the packets of data, a code must be provided to be able to download it). This is how the security of VPN works. Normally, companies are implementing this type of network to prevent unauthorized access or users to get their information.
