This week’s best VPN deals: IPVanish, NordVPN, VyprVPN

The methods used by hackers have grown increasingly more sophisticated, and at the same time we have given them more entry points into our lives thanks to the increased adoption of connected devices and wearables. Even our own bodies are no longer safe from the threat of a cyber-attack now that brain computer interfaces are currently in development.

By using a VPN to connect to the internet, you can add an additional layer of security between your devices and the network they are connected to, in order to better protect yourself from hackers.

Most VPN service providers offer services globally and thus charge in US Dollars rather than in local currencies, so we've listed pricing in Dollars for the sake of simplicity. Bear in mind that when you click through to the actual deals, you may find the prices automatically displayed in pounds, or whatever your native currency may be.
