UK2.net, a leading provider of web hosting solutions, has recently launched a virtual private network (VPN) service and are promoting the product by offering new customers the chance to win tickets to the Formula One British Grand Prix. UK2 are an official partner of the Marussia F1 Team for the 2012 FIA Formula One World Championship and are using the partnership to push their technological offerings to a wider market.
A virtual private network, or VPN, is an encrypted connection to a specific endpoint. This connection is completely secure providing protection when using public WiFi spots, secure connections for out-of-office staff and the ability to access geographically restricted IPs.
Craig McCartney, responsible for marketing at UK2, commented: “There are many online security concerns for London-based businesses and the general public during this summer’s activities and our VPN service will help to ease these concerns. The VPN can be used on any computer, smartphone or tablet, is incredibly easy to setup and will help to protect customers private data when browsing online.”
“F1 thrives on advancing technology and we are using our partnership with the Marussia F1 Team to promote products like VPN as they have potential for a larger audience. It’s not just the tech market that can benefit from this service,” Craig added.
VPNs are a cost-effective way to add an extra level of security to your online activity, whether for business or personal use. Through UK2’s technical expertise and extensive network of data centres they are able to provide a world class service and their VPN is another great addition to a strong Web hosting product range.
