What's Under Your Tree
Every time I teach Cybersecurity at a conference I am asked, “Murph, what VPN (virtual private network) do you recommend?” Typically, I stay away from any formal recommendation, rather I would say things like… “well, we have written articles in the past that list several different VPNs and give relative rankings based upon comparative factors. I suggest you check them out for yourself.”
Well, now I'm giving you a 'holiday surprise' (opening a present - so to speak) in the form of a recommendation for a specific VPN and one that will work for essentially all of your various personal internet connected devices. If you use Windows for your work-related computer, or your kids or wife has a Mac to do their stuff, or you have an iPhone and your wife is using an Android phone, you can protect them all with one single NordVPN personal account. In fact, you could even protect two more devices or encrypted proxy extensions with the same account because NordVPN provides protection for up to 6 personal devices for the price of just one account. They offer separate 'business and enterprise' accounts for SMBs and corporations.
And NordVPN is secure, in fact 'most secure.' I would say it is like doing all your web-surfing in a dark room, with everyone else in the entire universe outside wearing a welder’s helmet and ear-plugs, in the middle of a moonless night, on the other side of the cosmos. In other words, nobody can see or hear what you are doing at all. It’s the ‘most secure’ VPN there is, and don’t just take my word for it, ask PC Magazine which gave NordVPN an ‘Outstanding’ ranking, and an outstanding from PCMag is pretty outstanding a ranking to receive.

Typically, my cybersecurity class “scares the ‘you know what,’” out of most people attending for several different reasons. First, because I am talking about super scary stuff like ‘Ransomware’ and ‘identity theft’ and even ‘Spectre,’ a type of malware that can actually hijack your computer’s hardware rather than its software. The second reason that people walk away with a sense of ‘doom and gloom’ on their face is they often feel like there is nothing they can do to adequately protect themselves, that even the best defenses are not defense enough to protect them.
Fortunately, you now have a new cybersecurity option that you can unwrap under your holiday tree this year. You can turn the complexities, uncertainties, gloom and doom of cyber risk into cutting-edge cyber defense with this new technology shield for your internet activity to protect you from hackers and malware on networks and Wi-Fi using the most robust virtual private networking available.
NordVPN offers you military-grade encryption known as IKEv2/IPsec, which encrypts and secures your internet traffic with high-level cryptographic algorithms and keys along with NordVPN’s proprietary NGE (next generation encryption) which has shown that it can’t be cracked even by the most sophisticated computers (you know, like that 'little blue dinosaur' Joe Woodard was playing with at Scaling New Heights last June, really sophisticated AI kinds of machines).
Now chances are your ‘meager’ anti-virus/anti-malware software simply doesn’t always get the job done, with NordVPN you also get their CyberSec feature to bolster your A/V and it will automatically block suspicious websites so that no malware or other cyber threats can infect your devices. Additionally, no flashy ads that may contain harmful embedded hidden messaging will ever hit your view or those of your loved ones with NordVPN in place.
As if all of this wasn’t enough, NordVPN gives you ‘complete privacy’ with double VPN, an extra layer of privacy made possible through the use of double encryption. You need a high level of online security and privacy to ensure that you are protected from censorship and unwarranted Internet restrictions (like when Alexa or your smart refrigerator decides to listen to you and your wife arguing over who really is in charge of the household budget), NordVPN’s double VPN encryption will protect your Internet traffic behind multiple server levels via their VPN tunnel. In effect, your initial VPN server connection is redirected to another VPN server from which all your online traffic is redirected to the final destination. This way your connection goes through separate servers in different locations, with your date encrypted not once, but twice to insure it is protected at all time.
I know what you are thinking because you have heard me talk about some very ‘high dollar’ cyber security solutions in the past like ‘Barracuda Firewalls,’ you are wondering how much NordVPN is going to cost you? Well I am here to say that “‘Old Saint Nick’ has brought you a present you are not going to believe!” Right now, NordVPN is having a super ‘holiday deal’ on that standard 6 device 3-year subscription. Now I am not going to quote you a price, but I am going to tell you that if you don’t check it out, it will be like leaving the best gift under the holiday tree still wrapped when the house burns down. So, be sure to go out to the NordVPN website today because wouldn’t you rather be the one going ‘Ho, Ho, Ho’ when the Cyber criminal comes knocking, rather than him?
