My team and I tested 50 providers, and found the best VPNs for Pakistan to secure your connection and access global content from anywhere. All the VPNs I listed come with top-grade encryption and secure protocols for protecting user privacy. Moreover, I only included VPNs with a global network of fast servers, including those in or near Pakistan. ExpressVPN is the best VPN for Pakistan. It uses military-grade security features to keep you protected online....

A VPN can help eliminate all of these problems. VPNs can help bypass geoblocks on your favorite sites abroad and provide strong security and privacy features to protect your data. With the help of my team, I tested over 75 VPNs to find the fastest, most secure options for Poland. Each one offers strong encryption, plenty of servers worldwide, and can reliably bypass geoblocks. The best part is, you don’t have to sacrifice speed for security....

The attacker is using the relatively new MortalKombat ransomware and a variant of the Laplas Clipper malware to extort victims or steal cryptocurrency from them. While most victims are in the U.S., the researchers also found victims in the United Kingdom, Turkey, and the Philippines. One of the servers used to deliver malware was tracked to an IP address in Poland. Cisco Talos researchers said since December 2022, they’ve observed the attacker targeting individuals, small businesses and large organizations....

Medibank said there is no evidence that the actor behind the incident accessed any customer information or other sensitive data. However, the company decided to remove access to its health insurance service, international student policy management systems, and systems for its insurance business, “ahm.” “We confirm we have successfully taken offline the ahm and international student policy systems and its data, and we are in the process of methodically and safely restarting the systems,” the company said on its website....

A VPN Too Popular Among Cyber Criminals According to Europol, DoubleVPN was heavily advertised on both Russian and English-speaking underground cybercrime forums as a way to “mask the location and identities of ransomware operators and phishing fraudsters.” DoubleVPN claimed it logged no client activity prior to its downfall. A “no logs” VPN provider guarantees anonymity by keeping no records of users’ DNS queries, local or assigned IP addresses, connection and disconnection times, browsing history, or any other online activity....

Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work. SecureLine VPN neither has the necessary unblocking features to reliably access any of Netflix’s libraries nor does it keep its servers safe from the platform’s blacklisting tools. Add the uncompetitively small server network of just 700 servers worldwide and this VPN just isn’t a good choice for streaming. So, if you’re looking to enjoy Netflix’s geo-blocked content, a much better option is to try a different VPN instead....

Google’s announcement of Bard comes amid widespread excitement about OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which was released less than three months ago. Last month, reports surfaced that the launch of ChatGPT raised concerns among Google executives, as the chatbot threatens the company’s dominant position in the internet search space. Bard appears to be Google’s answer to ChatGPT. The service, powered by Google’s LaMDA conversational language model, will offer more insightful responses to questions compared to the current “quick” answers that Google Search provides....

According to a notice from China’s internet regulator, the new comment-scanning rules are in line with the government’s national security and public interests, as well as the interests of its citizens. It’s unclear exactly when the new provisions will come into force, though it’s expected sometime this year. A New “Follow-Up Comment Service” China has long been known to target public criticism of and opposition to its government, and the new “follow-up comment service” will be installed to augment the existing provisions on internet comments that came into force in 2017....

According to Cloudflare, the attacker hijacked virtual machines (VMs) and servers in several countries and turned them into an international botnet, generating 26 million requests per second (rps). Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) is a type of attack where a threat actor inundates a server with traffic from different sources to disrupt a website or online service. This temporarily prevents people from being able to access a website or web-based service....

The Wall Street Journal put out a report on Tuesday, 14 September, based on a Facebook internal research document. The report uncovers truly shocking information about the impact Instagram has on teenage girls. It says that the popular app is a powerful engine for “social comparison,” which negatively impacts the user’s mental health. What’s worse is that Facebook has known about it and kept this information hidden. Some key uncovered documents and presentations date back to 2019....

It uses automatic obfuscation, DNS and IP leak protection, and a kill switch to get around China’s firewall consistently. It even offers workarounds so you can download the app when you’re already in China. While you shouldn’t need to configure it to get it to work there, there are some settings we recommend for best performance. Plus, you can always try ExpressVPN out risk-free since it offers a 30-day money-back guarantee....

Below you can see the winner of each category: Security: ExpressVPN Speed: ExpressVPN Privacy: CyberGhost Price: CyberGhost Ease of use: A Tie Customer service: CyberGhost We have a bit of a precedent with these two providers. Usually, the one that takes more categories also gets the final win. Here, however, we would argue that ExpressVPN’s wins are more significant than CyberGhost’s. That’s why we give ExpressVPN the victory, albeit by a very thin margin....

FlixTor often experiences outages and other technical issues. Looking for FlixTor alternatives? Here are the top options: Some people use a VPN to stay anonymous online and stream content on FlixTor without attracting a fine. We recommend you refrain from any illegal streaming activities. A VPN has other potential uses, like unblocking geo-restricted content on legitimate streaming platforms.

This decision does not come as a surprise to most, as Russia has tried to control the narrative about its invasion of Ukraine from the very beginning. However, the EU and social media giants have put up a united front against “Russian disinformation.” As a consequence, both fronts have resorted to a series of blocking measures. Several Russian state-backed media outlets are banned across several European countries, as well as on social media platforms....

Nutribullet Website Attacked The attacks seem to have started at the end of February. The security company detected the first attack and tried to contact the company. There was no response from Nutribullet, but RiskIQ decided to take down the attack. Since then the security company has detected two other attacks on the website. The malware was removed every time, but RiskIQ is not certain that the attacks are over. Nutribullet did not contact RiskIQ directly at any point, but they did state that they “have launched forensic investigations to determine how the code was compromised”....

The Chinese government has had a tense history with Google, who shut down its Chinese search engine back in 2010. While there are plenty of local options available, they usually won’t return search results from Western countries. If you’re traveling to China, maintaining access to these sites is essential. There’s an easy way to get around the Google ban from within China’s borders. Using a good VPN service will both bypass the government censorship while also protecting your activity from surveillance....

However, you can bypass these restrictions by getting a Russian IP using a VPN — this simple app replaces your actual IP address with one of your choice. It does this by rerouting your internet traffic through a Russian server, which makes it looks like you’re browsing the web in Russia. Out of the 100+ VPNs my team and I tested, the one I recommend for a Russia IP is CyberGhost....

I’ve tried and tested 4 easy methods to get your VPN running on your Fire Stick, Fire TV, or Fire Cube. Of course, the easiest way is to get a VPN that has a native app for Fire Stick. But the other methods aren’t overly complicated either. My favorite VPN for Fire Stick is ExpressVPN — it has a custom-made app for Fire devices that can be downloaded in seconds....

The downside to this method is that third-party Kodi addons can leave you vulnerable to cyber threats. However, you can use a VPN to install and use Netflix safely. VPNs encrypt your data, making it difficult for snoops and hackers to get hold of it. On top of that, with a global network of servers, you can access your Netflix account when traveling abroad. ExpressVPN is my top recommendation for watching Netflix with Kodi because it’s easy to configure....
