[About "Wi-Fi Security"]

 

The Most Trusted VPN software with more than 150 million downloads *1 around the World

"Wi-Fi Security" is based upon the VPN software, "Hotspot Shield" developed by AnchorFree, and is a rebranded version of "Hotspot Shield Elite" (paid version). The software creates a safe VPN (Virtual Private Network) connection in various "unsafe" network environments such as public Wi-Fi hotspots and protects data transmissions carried out in such environments. Hotspot Shield also protects user privacy and makes all mobile and web usage anonymous. Ensuring that users stay in control of all of their personal data online and that no third parties are able to collect information about the sites users visit or anything linked to the user identity. VPN has been adopted by many corporations as solutions for setting up safe network connections, and now with "Wi-Fi Security", people can enjoy the same "corporate level" security on a more personal level. Since encryptions are carried out for the entire transmission –from terminal to servers –users can rest assured that no data is ever intercepted or eavesdropped during transmission.

"Hotspot Shield" has recorded over 175 million downloads *1 around the world and has received many high ratings from users in more than 190 countries.

 

Blocks Malicious Activities which Antivirus Software Can’t Protect you from

Public Wi-Fi hotspots are convenient when you’re on the go, but many people are still unaware about or understand the dangers that lurk in these environments –dangers which cannot be protected by Anti-virus software alone. This is basically because Anti-virus software is designed to protect only the devices themselves and are not designed to protect data once it leaves the device and hits the network. By incorporating both Anti-virus software and "Wi-Fi Security" in their devices, users can rest assured that their data is fully protected both inside and outside the devices and enjoy a safer Internet-life.

 

 

[Key Features of "Wi-Fi Security"]

Multi-device Support + Encryptions for All Network Activities on any Device

"Wi-Fi Security" supports various platforms such as Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android, and a single user is allowed to use the same license key to install and protect up to 5 devices. In addition, since the product encrypts ALL network activities carried out on these devices, even if user accesses a service or app which doesn’t support SSL encryption, they can rest assured that the data transmission will always be encrypted and protected by "Wi-Fi Security".

 

 

Phishing Site Blocker

いくら通信を暗号化しても、悪意あるフィッシングサイトに自ら情報を送信してしまえば、当然フィッシングサイト犯にログイン情報などを盗まれてしまいます。Wi-Fi セキュリティにはフィッシング対策機能があり、フィッシングサイトに接続しようとすると自動でブロックされます。

 

Anonymous Web Surfing

Users’ IP’s are masked when using VPN connection –meaning that users can enjoy anonymous web surfing, make posts on forums, use chat (instant messaging) without letting the site owners or any third parties know their IP address or any other personal information. This protects users from identity theft and ensures all online communications and browsing remain private.

 

Allows Access to Blocked Overseas Websites

A portion of the overseas websites / web services available on the internet are allowed only from the particular country of origin and cannot be used or accessed from Japan. With "Wi-Fi Security", users can easily bypass these restrictions by choosing a country (U.S., United Kingdom, Australia, Japan) as the physical location of VPN servers.

This provides Access to UK, US, JP, AU content from anywhere in the world, enabling users to watch US TV in Japan or to get NHK Japanese TV from anywhere in the world.

 

So just by selecting a country from the list of overseas VPN servers, users can freely access region restricted web sites and services as if they were actually accessing from the selected country.

* Please note that some Japanese websites and services may become unavailable if a foreign country is selected from the list of VPN servers.
