✅ Working from home: A VPN provides secure and reliable access to your corporate networks.
✅ Public network: A VPN connection provides a secure connection when your employees are working on a public Wi-Fi network.

✅ Regional blocking: A VPN helps users bypass geographical area blocking.
Disadvantages:
❌ S lower Internet: The detour of the VPN makes the Internet slower.
❌ C ost: Setting up a VPN connection takes time and money.
❌ Reliable VPN: A VPN provider can indeed see your data and possibly resell it. Therefore, avoid VPNs that store or analyze your data, such as Facebook's Onavo. Also check the privacy terms, as some VPNs record connection times and data usage. This makes your online activities trackable.
