The Proxy Server Service is a form for product that lets you hide your IP address basically by using the Proxy Server Service to supply an IP address for you which is not linked to your own computer. In general terms we think of a Proxy Server Service as a server that is placed in between a users computer and the destination server or computer. But what does that really mean in english?Ok, lets imagine you are in your office and you wanted to go to Google.com. You open your internet browser and type in your web address and in a second or 2 the website appears on the screen. While using a Proxy Server service In the background the IP address exposed to Google was in fact that of the proxy server and not that of your workstation. As far as security goes, you will have remained anonymous as far as your IP address is confirmed. A good proxy server service can in fact do a lot more than this, but to explain properly the proxy server service we are going to focus on the IP address masking function.
As an example, you are sitting at home and browsing the internet. Now normally there would be no proxy server between you and whatever website you access. Because of this, your IP address would of been exposed.
Keeping your IP address and data anonymous is dependent on running a good quality Proxy Server Service. The service is delivered through 2 different methods. Firstly, and the only method I can guarantee is 100% anonymous and secure is to download a specific proxy server service software. With this software when you surf the internet your IP address is kept secret but also any data that is passed is encrypted to keep everything secret, even from your internet service provider. Secondly you could use a free Web Service, in which case you open their website and simply type in the address to which you want to go and press the go or continue button. As in the first one your IP address is masked, however the Free proxy server site will actually make a note of your IP address and can spam it with adware and malware which they get money for,which obviously they use to run the allegedly "free service". You should always be aware that free proxy server services offer you no protection for your personal data and should not be trusted for anything that requires personal information.
No 2 services are the same. Some will offer you a selection of IP addresses dedicated to specific purposes. For example, if you did not live in the United States and you wanted to join a Website that restricted its membership to people who lived in the United States. Then you could select an IP address or IP address range that was tailored specifically to that specific website or type of website.
The Service could provide very specific IP addresses for very specific purposes or it could just provide one or a few generic IP addresses. What ever you use the software for you know that your visited websites and personal data have all remained secure from everyone's eyes.
When you start to look for a Proxy Server Service, as either a software install or free web service, you should be aware that there are a lot of "pretenders" out there which claim to offer you ultimate protection against people spying on your web browsing habits.
Over the years I have used many different Proxy Server Service packages I have always found that it is only Identity Cloaker that comes up to the mark for user safety.
