If you do not want anybody to have an illicit access to your information, you need to know to catch hold of this kind of process that might run in your system without your knowledge.

I will begin this article by citing benefits of a VPN, then advantages of another type of VPN that's based on SSLv3/TLS. First of all, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) allows you to access the local network of your company through a secure internet connection when you are in a remote location (at home, at a customer ...). Thus, you get access to resources at your local network (shared files, intranet, external, printers, emails, games ...) in the same way as if you were at work / home, without having to open a port on your router or reconfigure your local resources. So, what? I heard that VPN are secured, but how? Nope, they are not! I'm talking about average VPN, which are used to connect with at least one or more remote machines via an internet connection. We are talking about virtual tunnels where the data is encrypted. And SSL/TLS VPN ? Here is another thing! These VPN are highly secured, the data transiting inside are totally obscure.

The First Cell Phone

The very first cell phone was created in 1946 by a truck driver who was simply running an experiment. The phone weighed around 80 pounds and consisted of a battery life which only lasted through 6 calls. By 1948, the very first hand held phone was created by Martin Cooper; the man responsible for taking mobile phones to a whole new level. This phone only weighed around 2.5 pounds. However, calls were not cellular yet and people still could not move around freely while talking on the phone. Phones were mounted into automobiles in the 80s, but it wasn�t until 1983; Joel Engel and Richard Frenkiel introduced the cellular concept to the world. They achieved this by putting towers just a few miles from one another, so people were able to make remote calls from their cell phones. People started to become more aware of this new idea and quickly jumped on board. This is considered to be one of the greatest breakthroughs in the evolution of cell phone and tablet charging .
