How to hide my IP address using VPN service? OpenVPN / PPtP / DoubleVPN.

You are using unsecured Wi-Fi connection?
Is your internet connection useless for some applications ( like Skype or BitTorrent )?
Do you want to protect yourself from attacker?
Do you want to stay fully anonymous?

Why Do I need a VPN?

Most of our customers use VPN because they can

encrypt internet traffic for information safety. It is especially important for widespread Wi-Fi hotspots which are unprotected;
hide IP address;
bypass a corporate firewall. Nowadays many companies limit the use of the Internet at work place by blocking entertainment site like social networks, game sites and so;

Let's look at the usual connection scheme ( pictured ): Connection without a VPN. No encryption. Easy for sniffers.

User connects to the Internet by means of common ISP. If we use a spyware software from client to server data channel we will recieve a lot of data about connection. Here is the example of such received traffic:

07:10:58.514164 IP 192.168.1.2.46662 > secretsline.biz.http: Flags [P.],

As you can see we are trying to access secretsline.biz website and get a picture. Of course some of us don't worry about sharing their surfing history with everybody but at the same time you can easily lose all personal passwords from many sites. So, what do you need to do?

VPN encryption

The best variant is to encrypt all your internet traffic. Some sites provide with additional access method - HTTPS protocol ( looks like https://example.com ). HTTPS uses traffic encription between server and client so even if somebody gets an access to this data it will be useless. Unfortunately the HTTPS protocol is not so widely supported by popular sites ( exept very popular, like Twitter, Facebook, GMail and so on). So how can you protect yourself? That's why you need VPN. Using VPN to hide ip and encrypt internet traffic

Using VPN to hide ip and encrypt internet traffic

As you can see at the picture, all data go through the VPN server. All clients data became a useless mush on the VPN output, and anybody who got an access to your data channel will read only encrypted data, without any chance to decrypt them in a reasonable time.

VPN software

We provide VPN service using such softwares as OpenVPN ( free software using OpenSSL ) and PPtP ( Point-to-Point Protocol, developed by Microsoft ). Difference table is given below:

Characteristic	OpenVPN	PPtP
Connection port	configurable	1723
Data transfer protocol	TCP/UDP	GRE
Encryption method	DES, IDEA, CAMELIA, AES, BLOWFISH, CAST5, RC2	MPPE
Keysize range	64 - 448 bits	40 - 128 bits
Compression method	LZO	MPPC
Needs additional software	YES	NO

Both of this softwares support required encryption level. Nowadays breaking keys with keysize more than 128 is a very difficult task. We recommend to use OpenVPN for our clients.
