  • What is Safe Browsing (VPN)

    Safe Browsing (VPN) is a PCProtect add-on service that will add layers of security whilst you browse the internet. Safe Browsing (VPN) creates a secure, encrypted connection to a separate network over the internet.

    Having a secure, encrypted VPN connection will stop cyber-criminals, internet service providers (ISP), and government agencies from accessing your data.

    What are the Benefits of Using Safe Browsing (VPN)?

    There are many benefits of using PCProtect's VPN. These include:


  • Staying Safe on Public Wi-Fi
  • If you access the internet via public Wi-Fi, it is possible that hackers and cyber-criminals could gain access to the data you transmit online. This gives them the potential to steal data such as Web History, Passwords, and Credit / Bank Card Details.

    Safe Browsing (VPN) encrypts your data, meaning that hackers and cyber-criminals will not be able to read your data.


  • Stop ISP monitoring
  • Your internet service provider can see and store your browsing data. A lot of questions are raised about how this data is used and who it is shared with...

    As Safe Browsing (VPN) encrypts your data, your internet service provider will not be able to store or share your data.


  • No ISP Throttling
  • Some Internet Service Providers deliberately slow down your internet connection. This usually happens when you are using a high amount of bandwidth on the internet - For example whilst streaming films and tv shows online.

    As Safe Browsing (VPN) encrypts your data, your internet service provider will not be able to see if you are using a high amount of bandwidth, and therefore will not be able to slow down your internet speed.
