How Avast SecureLine VPN works

Usually when you are connected to an internet, whatever you search or do, its traffic passes unprotected through your ISP (Internet Service Provider), and whence it goes to the server to retrieve whatever you searched for. In this situation, your ISP, or government through ISP, knows your exact location and almost every detail you enter in any website you visit. Thus, it becomes easy for them to collect your information and sell it to any third party for any purpose or they can also restrict your access to any website or location.

Or if you are on public Wi-Fi, be it at café, restaurant, club etc., where everyone is on the same network, anyone who has good knowledge about cyber and network security could act as a man-in-the-middle and hack into your mobile or laptop and steal your data or private information like Bank details, ID and Password, Card number etc.

But when activated with Avast VPN activation codeAvast SecureLine VPN allows you to change your location. And it also forms a safety tunnel around your network to keep everything you do safe. Before sending your traffic to ISP, it encrypts your whole data, so your ISP or anyone for that matter, could have no idea of what you do except that it is going to one of the servers set by Avast itself in different countries.

In these servers, Avast SecureLine VPN decodes your data, and it fetches all the information for you with its own virtual IP and location. While bringing back the information, it still keeps the data under 256-bit AES encryption. In this way, it creates a safety tunnel by encrypting your traffic, in and out, so no one could have even a slightest clue about your activities.
