"F-Secure" a Security solutions firm has
introduced a mobile application, Freedome app, for surfing the Internet
anonymously.
The company claims the app enables
users mask their IP address and hide their real location. It further claimed
that this app is an ideal choice to counter cyber snooping.
“When you connect to the Internet,
your device is assigned a unique IP address. Freedome masks your IP, so you can
surf anonymously under the protective F-Secure Cloud. All that is precious -–
from identity to location -– stay hidden and private,” F-Secure Country Manager
(India and SAARC) Amit Nath told PTI.
Freedome can be used for total
anonymity, even from F-Secure. F-Secure does not log user’ traffic or user name
or contact details, he said
“With Connection Protection,
government officials and any regular user can stay anonymous, shielded wherever
you go. While using WiFi, your traffic is encrypted so nobody can tap into your
communications,” he said.
With the Virus Protection and
Browsing Protection that Freedome app offers, one can face the world from the
security of your own private network, he added.
Digital technology has transformed
the world, empowered and connected people, but at the same time digital freedom
and privacy rights are under attack, he said.
“Our users are totally anonymous
from start to finish -– even from us. We are a security company, but we don’t
believe security should come at the expense of privacy,” Nath added.
