BTGuard vs VPNs

[archer]

I have been using BTGuard but many times I am having the problems. So I want to ask you guys about the BTGuard and VPN. I've felt over two diverse kinds of solutions:

• primary to overcome ISP throttling over the bittorrent protocol (protocol encryption not being successful);
• succeeding to guard the seclusion of the actions of the user (which in nature obey moral authenticity).

Hope that you guys will provide some useful information about it.

Do you use BitTorrent and I'm afraid that your ISP is watching so low? BTGuard is a company that offers a proxy service only for transfers of this type and hiding from the prying eyes of your ISP or other spoilers like the MPAA and RIAA. A VPN network is based on a protocol called "tunneling protocol". This protocol allows information flow from the company in encrypted from one end to another tunnel. Thus, users feel they connect directly to the company network. The principle of tunneling is to build a virtual path after identifying the sender and recipient. Subsequently, the source encrypts data and sends them via this virtual path. To ensure an easy and inexpensive access to intranets or extranets, corporate virtual private networks to simulate a private network access, so they actually use a shared access infrastructure, such as the Internet.

The VPN access is used to enable mobile users to access the private network. The user uses an Internet connection to establish VPN connection. There are two cases :

• The user requests to the ISP it establish an encrypted connection to the remote server: it communicates with the NAS (Network Access Server) and the ISP is the Nas that establishes the encrypted connection.
• The user has its own client software for the VPN in which case it directly establishes an encrypted communication to the corporate network.

The Intranet VPN is used to connect two or more intranets them. This type of network is particularly useful in a company with multiple remote sites. Most important in this type of network is to ensure the security and integrity of data. Some highly sensitive data may have to pass on the VPN (client database, financial information ...). Cryptographic techniques are implemented to verify that the data has not been altered. It is a packet-level authentication to ensure the validity of data, identification of their source and their non-repudiation. Most algorithms make use of digital signatures that are added to packets. Data privacy is also based on cryptographic algorithms. The technology in this field is advanced enough to allow a near-perfect safety. The material cost of equipment for encryption and decryption as well as legal limits prohibit the use of a coding "infallible". Generally for confidentiality, coding itself can be medium to low, but will be combined with other techniques such as encapsulation in Ip to ensure reasonable safety.

BTGuard routes your traffic through their servers in Canada, where the law even protects the privacy of your IP, so your internet provider see your IP and not yours, preventing logger data or limit the speed of such protocol. Unlike other services , only BitTorrent traffic is routed, while the rest of your connections are the normal channel. That yes, should be mentioned that traffic is not encrypted, so it could still be monitored, but more effort. The service has no traffic limits or volume of data, but has a price and that is $ 4.75 euros ($ 7.3). Anyway, you can try the service for free for a day.

Well I think and it is time to realize we can not be deprived of the benefits of technology, because some want to preserve their business model, if so we would still listening AM radio instead of FM and find out the story as RCA was buzzing Edwin Armstrong created the crushing FM better technology to keep their slice of the cake. Well personally I find that this service is a joke and a market unnecessary. Users should not that be victims of selective traffic from suppliers. In addition to the harsh reality, always the power to encrypt packets.

The VPN is a principle: it does not describe the actual implementation of these features. Therefore there are several different products on the market, some have become standard, and even considered as a standard. There are really three protocols to achieve Level 2 of VPN: PPTP (Microsoft), L2F (developed by CISCO) and finally L2TP. We are referring in this study as PPTP and L2TP: Protocol L2F has now virtually disappeared. PPTP would probably also disappeared without the support of Microsoft continues to integrate its Windows operating systems. L2tp is an evolution of PPTP and L2F, incorporating the advantages of both protocols.

The term "tunnel" is used to symbolize the fact that between the entry and exit from the VPN data is encrypted (scrambled) and therefore incomprehensible to anyone between the two ends of the VPN, as if the data passed in a tunnel. In the case of a VPN established between two machines, called VPN client element used to encrypt and decrypt data on the user side (client) and the VPN server (or more generally remote access server) s element encrypting and decrypting the data side of the organization.

To establish a VPN connection, you must have :

• Broadband connections (for VPN server and VPN client);
• a router incorporating VPN capabilities (Cisco, 3Com, Lucent, ...);
• or software (Check Point, Nokia, Network Associates, F-Secure ...);
• or even the operating system Windows XP or Windows Vista.

Applications and distributed systems are increasingly part of the landscape of many businesses. These technologies have been able to grow as increasingly important performance LANs. But the success of these applications has also revealed one of their rock. Indeed, if distributed applications become the main tool of the information system of the company, how to secure their access within structures sometimes spread over large geographic distances? Specifically how a branch of a company can access data on a server remote from the parent company of several thousand kilometers? The VPN has begun to be put in place to respond to this type of problem. But other issues have emerged and the VPN have now taken an important place in computer networks and distributed computing.
