A web browser (commonly referred to as a browser) is a software application for retrieving, presenting and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web.

An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI/URL) that may be a web page, image, video or other piece of content.

Hyperlinks present in resources enable users easily to navigate their browsers to related resources.

Wi-Fi or WiFi is a technology for wireless local area networking with devices based on the IEEE 802.11 standards.

Wi-Fi is a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance, which restricts the use of the term Wi-Fi Certified to products that successfully complete interoperability certification testing.

A virtual private network (VPN) is a virtualized extension of a private network across a public network, such as the Internet.

It enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network.

Applications running across the VPN may therefore benefit from the functionality, security, and management of the private network.

In cryptography, encryption is the process of encoding a message or information in such a way that only authorized parties can access it.

Encryption does not of itself prevent interference, but denies the intelligible content to a would-be interceptor.

In an encryption scheme, the intended information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted.

For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm.

It is in principle possible to decrypt the message without possessing the key, but, for a well-designed encryption scheme, considerable computational resources and skills are required.

An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients but not to unauthorized users.

Privacy is the ability of an individual or group to seclude themselves, or information about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively.

The boundaries and content of what is considered private differ among cultures and individuals, but share common themes.

When something is private to a person, it usually means that something is inherently special or sensitive to them.

The domain of privacy partially overlaps security (confidentiality), which can include the concepts of appropriate use, as well as protection of information.

Privacy may also take the form of bodily integrity.
