CyberGhost 5 For Android

CyberGhost 5 For Android

David Hayward uses a secure stick with which to beat the prying eyes of the internet

We’ve covered a number of programs in the past that are designed with your online security, privacy and anonymity in mind.

Most of them are really good and do the job of keeping you private and safe very well indeed. However, there’s one program that stands head and shoulders above the rest and works to better complement the already fantastic services offered.


We won’t go into too much detail this time around regarding the necessity of privacy and being anonymous when online; there’s already far too much news in this area already. And we imagine we don’t have a need to lecture you on the importance of security while using the many free wi-fi hotspots and other pits of unsecure despair.

Needless to say, though, if you’re online, no matter how long for, then it’s worth protecting your right to privacy.

CyberGhost 5 for Android is an extension of the excellent Smartphone and Tablet Protection areas of the Premium and Premium Plus plans, and it’s incredibly simple to use. All you need to do is sign up for one of the aforementioned plans via the CyberGhost site. The various plans offer good value for money; check out goo.gl/dqIRr9 for the latest pricing.

Once you’ve got your account up and running, download and install the CyberGhost 5 Android app from the Google Play store and enter your account details to log in with. When you’re in, you’ll be connected to the many servers that the CyberGhost team operate through the most secure L2TP VPN protocol with a separate IPSec encryption technology.

This means that once you’re connected to the CyberGhost encryption tunnel, it’s virtually impossible to be hacked while you’re on a public network, such as a free wi-fi hotspot.

In addition to the protection against tracking cookies, data miners and other unpleasant things and, as with the desktop version of the CyberGhost software, you can choose to mask your IP address to any one of the many different countries around the world. That means your connection to the internet will identify you as being in the USA while you’re actually in Eastern Europe, for example.

If you’re passionate and determined to remain secure when on the move, then we strongly suggest you look into some form of privacy and online protection. If you value your online freedom and privacy or you want to have access to the content restricted to the country of its origin, CyberGhost 5 is the one app we wholeheartedly recommend.

In a nutshell, it’s easy to use, secure, safe and doesn’t have any detrimental effects to the operation of your device. CyberGhost 5 is perfect for those on the go, those who use hotspots and those who just want security peace of mind.
