Whois & Analysis for privatetunnel.com

An intrusion detection system (IDS) is a device or software application that monitors a network or systems for malicious activity or policy violations.

Any detected activity or violation is typically reported either to an administrator or collected centrally using a security information and event management (SIEM) system.

A SIEM system combines outputs from multiple sources, and uses alarm filtering techniques to distinguish malicious activity from false alarms.

OpenVPN is an open-source software application that implements virtual private network (VPN) techniques for creating secure point-to-point or site-to-site connections in routed or bridged configurations and remote access facilities.

It uses a custom security protocol that utilizes SSL/TLS for key exchange.

It is capable of traversing network address translators (NATs) and firewalls.

It was written by James Yonan and is published under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

An IP address (abbreviation of Internet Protocol address) is an identifier assigned to each computer and other device (e.g., printer, router, mobile device, etc) connected to a TCP/IP network that is used to locate and identify the node in communications with other nodes on the network.

IP addresses are usually written and displayed in human-readable notations, such as 172.16.254.1 in IPv4, and 2001:db8:0:1234:0:567:8:1 in IPv6.

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.

Internet security is a branch of computer security specifically related to the Internet, often involving browser security but also network security on a more general level as it applies to other applications or operating systems on a whole.

Its objective is to establish rules and measures to use against attacks over the Internet.

The Internet represents an insecure channel for exchanging information leading to a high risk of intrusion or fraud, such as phishing.

Different methods have been used to protect the transfer of data, including encryption and from-the-ground-up engineering.
