VPN as a secure Internet connection:

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) or VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a network whose function is to connect one or more computers to a private network using the Internet.

In other words, it becomes a private connection between the devices that connect to the Internet and the servers that offer the hosting service along with the web pages, making the connection between the user and the server totally encrypted.

The VPN network works in a similar way to a proxy, it connects to another network to simulate that you are connected from there, which makes it difficult to find your address from where you connect by hiding your browsing data.
