When one gets a computer or a digital device, the things that should be downloaded and installed are an antivirus/anti-malware solution/prevention and a firewall. Apart from getting a firewall and an antivirus solution, one should also get a VPN installed.

VPNs are important to keep one’s online footsteps concealed. There are several reasons why one would require VPNs. These reasons range from actual security threats to just using a VPN to feel better protected. Here are some reasons why you should have a VPN installed into your device as soon as possible.

To Override Location Based Restrictions

There are different online shows, websites, applications and programs on the internet which are geographically bound. These programs or sites are made available only to specific locations.

There is the possibility of using a browser-based proxy tool which tricks the service into believing that one is in another country. However, there is a price to be paid for this. The price is having slower network connection.

With the help of a virtual private network, one can overcome restrictions based on geographical locations. All one needs to do is specify which local server to use from the plethora of servers the VPN has.

Thanks to cloud computing, there have been a number of emergent technologies to come to light that have been making the task of establishing business presence worldwide easier than ever. One of the key developments includes telecommunications. Perhaps you’ve heard of the benefits of VoIP, or “Voice over Internet Protocol,” which has made something called “virtual phone numbers” possible.

What are virtual phone numbers? In the simplest sense, a virtual phone number routes calls made to one number and delivers this call instantaneously to another phone number, which is referred to as the “destination phone number.” This means that if someone called your virtual phone number in India, that call would be instantaneously routed to your call center in the United States.

Vice versa, by using outbound calling through a virtual phone number service provider, like Global Call Forwarding, you can direct calls from that US-based call center to India. Best of all, when your number appears on their caller ID, it appears as the virtual phone number (and not the destination phone number).

There are many benefits to virtual phone numbers, as we’ll discuss in the next section.
