Steganos Online Shield

While connected to the Internet, computers are always exposed to hackers, identity theft attempts and other threats. If you wish to browse the web without worrying that someone may log your online identity and use it for malicious purposes, you would need a specialized security tool. Steganos Online Shield can encrypt your connection and protect your IP address. The best part is that it takes only a single click to secure your connection.

Steganos Online Shield provides free protection for 500 MB of Internet traffic and you have to pay a fee if you want unlimited protection. The software is compatible with all modern Windows versions and it can be installed in a few seconds. Its hardware requirements are modest and you won't have to install any prerequisite tools.

Besides a short description about the application's functionality, the user interface displays your IP address and the current state of your Internet connection. All you have to do is click an on/off switch, located on the right side of the interface, and wait for a few seconds. The application will automatically encrypt your Internet traffic and hide your IP address, by rerouting the connection through a secure server.

While Steganos Online Shield is active, hackers or identity thieves will not be able to intercept your data. Additionally, the websites you visit will log a different IP address instead of your own. If you can't access certain contents due to region related restrictions, you can set the application to reroute your connection through a specific server, from a different country. You only need to click the Menu button, located in the upper right corner of the interface, and select a country in a sub-menu.
