    You may think a VPN and Proxy are similar, because they have a similar end result: Hiding your IP address. But the way they do this is very different, and they cannot be used in the same way and by the same software. They are also very different in terms of security and encryption. This video goes over the difference between VPNs and different protocols used in Proxy servers. By the end, you'll be well informed and know whether to use a VPN or Proxy.

  • @natetolbert3671
    @natetolbert3671 2 роки тому +16

    When VPNs first hit the scene, encryption wasn't the main purpose. Back then they were usually hosted by a third party and were often half way across the world. People would buy multiples, just so they could be "truly anonymous." In other words, it was before we all realized that that doesn't exist. We had switcher software configured to switch connections every 30-60 minutes.. this was right around the time that TOR was at the peak of its popularity.

    I would literally only ever use my own proxy. Sometimes malicious web servers may inject proxy settings into your browser forcing your browser to use their proxy, and like Joe said, start injecting ads into your web traffic. Coming from a network engineer, just use VPNs if you're concerned about security.

    Im happy that you talked about DNS because you're absolutely correct. DNS is going to try and resolve which ever way it can, if you're changing your connection route to the Internet over a proxy and DNS isn't being filtered correctly, you can end up reaching out to a malicious site without realizing it. Great Video!

    Useful situation for proxies: When I was younger, I used to play a game that was locked for my country, so I had to use a proxy to connect to a server on a country that was supported by the game so I could play. There were other solutions but the proxy was the best in terms of ping, which was very important for an action game. The email and password I used for my game account were not related with any of my other accounts so I wasn't really worried about getting hacked, especially since the good items were hard locked to my character and needed real money to be unlocked. I did get hacked once and somebody stole my character's money tho, and I didn't share my email or password with anyone, so it might've been because of the proxy connection.

    One possible use for a free proxy that I can think of is when you get an IP-based ban on some forum and just want to spam on it for a little bit longer. You use the proxy to hide your IP, so you get full access to the site, make a throwaway account and spam.
    Although, if you have a dynamic IP, then even that isn't needed - just reboot your router.

    VPNs can be used for just the browser only, often as a browser plug-in.

      arvidsniper yes, some take up less memory than others though. You just need to find some that don’t take up much (I used to use trendmicro but now I use avast which doesn’t take up much memory on my computer)

      If you're layering protection, Proxychain.

    One thing maybe wrong, proxy will not leak dns related things, normally there's no need to launch dns query when you use proxy. Proxy will do it for you.

    What about using tor's socks 5 encryption proxies for browsing...is that any secure ?

      Casual User That's a local SOCKS proxy provided by Tor to provide a gateway for applications with SOCKS4/5 support to use Tor, and it wouldn't be exposed to the outside unless you forward the port outward while it's running. Can't say the same about the apps though.
