IPVanish Adds Secure Browsing & Cloud Backup to its Leading VPN Plans for Increased Consumer Protection

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IPVanish, the award-winning VPN provider owned by Ziff Davis, today announced the launch of IPVanish Advanced, a comprehensive suite that includes the all-new IPVanish Secure Browser and Cloud Storage powered by Livedrive. These offerings are designed to provide additional protection and risk management to its VPN customers. IPVanish Secure Browser is a safer way to access the internet and sets a new standard for more secure and anonymous browsing. Meanwhile, Cloud Storage enables users to quickly and safely store, share, backup, and recover important files. As part of the IPVanish Advanced plan, these enhancements offer customers a complete solution for enhanced digital security.

Secure Browser - More Protection Against Web-based Threats

All of today’s major web browsers offer some form of private or incognito browsing, which keeps your browsing history, cookies, and other activity from being stored locally on your device. This helps protect your privacy from other people using your devices, but it does not prevent your activity from being tracked and stored by the websites or networks you visit. This is why VPNs like IPVanish are essential – they provide a secure and encrypted tunnel that shields users’ internet activity from being monitored. They also mask user IP addresses, making it harder for them to be tracked.

With Secure Browser, IPVanish is taking their protection to the next level. IPVanish Secure Browser operates entirely in the cloud, creating a disposable browser window that isolates user activity in a virtual environment to provide:

• Malware and Virus Protection – blocking malware, spyware, viruses, and malicious downloads when opening suspicious links or search results;
• Enhanced Web Anonymity – eliminating session tracking, cookies, targeting, and digital device fingerprinting;
• Risk Isolation – preventing threats from compromising a device by operating all web browsing in a cloud sandbox.

Users can install the browser extension to turn on the service in one click, or the tool can be accessed through a website by any desktop browser without requiring software to download. Whether clicking email links, visiting questionable search results, or keeping gift purchases a surprise, using Secure Browser in tandem with the IPVanish VPN app ensures a safer browsing experience.

Cloud Storage - Secure, Effortless File Management

In one survey, 40% of respondents had their information compromised while using public Wi-Fi. Whether at the airport, a hotel, or even a favorite coffee shop, a VPN is an essential tool to help protect network data from being accessed by third parties and malicious actors when connected. However, user errors and network failures happen; unencrypted traffic can be exposed without a kill switch activated. The door is left open for hackers to wreak havoc by infiltrating accounts, installing malware, and deleting files. Many users turn to physical hard drives to avoid permanently losing files, yet these would be instantly compromised if lost, stolen, corrupted, or damaged. The most effective storage solutions involve the cloud.

Cloud Storage powered by Livedrive enables users to save photos, documents, media, and other important files onto a remote server with 1TB capacity, easily accessed from any computer or mobile device. This solution unlocks powerful features to enhance file organization and data management, including:

• Cloud Backup: Storage drive for users to quickly recover lost files due to cyberattacks, device theft, loss, or accidental deletion.
• File Sync & Share: Easily transfer files across all your devices. Access the latest versions anytime, anywhere, ensuring seamless collaboration and media management.
