The VPN is safe, but not infallible

Lately VPN has been in the spotlight. On one side, as a measure to protect itself upon attempts of espionage: are encrypted tunnels (in most cases) that keep someone from knowing what we are looking on Internet if, for example, we connect to public WiFi networks or we do not trust our ISP.

Unfortunately, and as usually happens in computing, they are not infallible. We have a sample in the failure we’ve seen this week that affected Firefox and Chrome, and that revealed the real IP of the user through RTC. And it’s not the only one.

How does a VPN work?

VPN

A VPN it’s a little like a Portal: instead of going out through the door of your room, you open a portal and walk out the door of another site.

Do you need to record your desktop? Show colleagues how to use an application or game? Create training material for uploading to the web? Screen recording applications are in, so let’s review the best offerings.

What is this about?

It refers to a technique of “desktop recording” or “screen recording” video, without using external cameras, which may or may not also include audio. You do your thing, edit it if necessary, and upload it to the Internet. Or you could record and stream it live by using streaming services such as Twitch, an immersive, multimedia entertainment experience of immense success, which we’ve discussed about on other occasions.

In addition to these services for games, a professional can use it to develop training material, developers to display an application that they’re working on, to teach others how to use said application or a system tool, a user to show off their desktop or how well he can play a game and everything in between.

What are the NVIDIA “Founders Edition” graphics?

Yesterday, we were discussing the price and the release dates of the upcoming Pascal graphic cards from NVIDIA (the GTX 1070 and the GTX 1080), including what the manufacturer has called “Founders Edition”. It seems that it is still not very clear what is the difference between these graphics and the other ones, so in this article we will clarify it to beyond any doubt.

In the event in which NVIDIA introduced its new graphics to the press, they were not too clear about the issue of nomenclature, among other things. In fact, the names tend to confuse some people. So, what is so interesting about this NVIDIA Founder Edition of its new Pascal graphics?

What is the difference between a VPN network and a Proxy?

It is known that a proxy is connected to a remote computer and a VPN network is also connected to a remote computer, so one would imagine they’d be the same, but it is not so, because proxies are a poor substitute of VPNs.

Every two weeks there is an important story about encryption, data filtering, IGMP, or other digital privacy issues. Many of these articles speak of the importance of security your Internet connection can have, such as using a VPN (virtual private network) when you are in a public place on a Wi-Fi network.

Even though they are completely different, virtual private networks and proxy servers have only one thing in common: both allow you to appear as if you’re connecting to the network from another location. They also offer privacy, encryption, and other functions, however, it varies greatly from one to another.

Proxies hide your IP address

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary in the flow of Internet traffic, so your activities on the Internet seem to come from elsewhere. Traffic from the web browser could come from the remote computer and not your own.
