VPN (Virtual Private Network) was introduced to bring privacy to online activities and enhance devices' security while using public Wi-Fi. It also enabled organizations to block access to social networking and streaming sites to ensure enhanced productivity of employees.
However, the cybersecurity landscape is rapidly evolving, and VPNs are on the verge of extinction. Let us dissect why VPNs lost their market share against cybersecurity platforms.
1. Weak encryption
NSA (National Security Agency) of the U.S. Federal Government has already developed a technology to breach VPN's encryption. Using limited prime numbers, they can decrypt the Diffie-Hellman cryptographic key. This allows NSA to decrypt 66% of VPN connections and 25% of SSH servers globally. Therefore, VPNs are no longer safe.
2. Can be blocked by ISP
Several users on the internet have posted that they could connect to a blocked media through Kodi, an open-source home theatre software. It has been observed that VPNs can bypass ISP restrictions. On the other hand, the same limitation can be expanded to cover VPN servers. You can check this by trying to stream a movie or a tv channel through a VPN. If other pages are opening except the streaming or tv channels, then you can consider that your VPN is blocked.
Also, in the US, ISPs can track your online activities and sell your data. Therefore, if you think VPNs are protecting you enough, it is time you rethink.
3. Free VPNs
Many people have tried using free VPNs. However, in the long run, their services have proven futile in several cases. Subscription-based VPNs provide better services, but the widespread popularity of free VPNs and their poor services have ruined VPNs' reputation. Realizing the importance of cybersecurity, organizations and even individuals have started investing in data security platforms.
4. Geo-blocking debacle
VPNs failed to execute the geo-blocking system. Albeit, they were used as a medium to fool servers. For example, if a streaming platform allowed the user to access their services only in the U.S., the user would use VPN to fool the server that he is in the U.S. while vacationing in another country.

Increased awareness is driving sales of various public safety solutions, such as computer-aided dispatch solutions, jail management systems, and record management solutions, to name a few, with strong growth forecast for North America, Europe, APEJ, and Japan in the coming years.The most recent edition of MarketNgage's 'public safety software' market study provides an up-to-date analysis of this industry, with a focus on its driving and restraining factors, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on demand-supply trajectories for the forecast period of 2021 to 2031.
The report also offers insights into new market trends and strategies being implemented by both leading players and new entrants in this space.With the rapid digitization of the past few years, the demand for public safety solutions has increased significantly.
The rise in cyber security threats, terrorist attacks, and natural disasters has boosted sales of public safety solutions such as mobile police software, court management solutions, and scheduling solutions.
Furthermore, increased mergers and agreements between vendors and technology partners in the public safety software industry have increased sales over the last five years from 2016 to 2020.In the notorious dark web, cybercrime as a service is emerging as a business model.
A cyberattack exposed 40 million customers' personal information, including social security numbers and driver licence numbers.As a result, the incident is expected to reduce customer traffic.
Despite the best efforts of cyber security experts, frequent attacks have highlighted the need for technological advancements to ensure data integrity.
Unknown people have offered over 23600 hacked databases for downloading on several underground forums and via Telegram.
They reportedly came from the Cit0Day.in service used by cybercriminals, which promised access to usernames, email addresses, and even unencrypted passwords for a monthly fee.Source:http://vpntester.net/Cit0DayCit0Day started in January 2018, shortly after LeakedSource was shut down by authorities who also dealt with the stolen access data.
As of September 14, ait was reported on the service’s website that the domain had been seized by the FBI and the US Department of Justice.However, threat intelligence provider KELA discovered that this report was fake and came from Deer.io, an e-commerce platform for hackers.
On a Russian-language hacker forum, the company also found 23618 hacked databases to download, which were available through the Mega file hosting provider.There, about 50GB, which is said to contain 13 billion sign-in data, was only available for a few hours.
This data was verified by KELA and the Italian security provider D3Lab.Data is currently being disseminated through closed Telegram and Discord channels operated by underground data dealers.
About a third of the data has also been offered free of charge since Sunday on another underground forum.Is hacking databases a threat to users?Publishing compromised databases should not pose a serious security threat to users.
