With NetZero DataShield, you can keep your personal information safe and protected when you use public WiFi.

Most people don’t realize it, but public WiFi hotspots are incredibly insecure. When you use them, any data, including private information like credit card numbers, bank account numbers, and passwords can be stolen by hackers and data thieves. Even if you are given a password to use a facility’s WiFi connection, your data can still be stolen by other users that were given that same password.

Protect yourself and keep your personal information safe!
When you use NetZero DataShield your data is encrypted, so hackers and data thieves cannot see or steal your personal information. NetZero DataShield gives you a personal VPN (Virtual Private Network) any time you connect to the Internet using a WiFi connection. Everything you send and receive is encrypted with 128-bit encryption, the same level of protection used by banks and other financial institutions.

When you use NetZero DataShield, your data is routed through one of our servers and that changes your IP address, which is your identity on the Internet. Anyone looking to track your activity sees the IP address of our server host instead of your actual IP address allowing you to use the Internet anonymously.
The uptime for NetZero DataShield is virtually 100%. We use multiple servers in different locations with automatic rollover so you’re always protected.

NetZero DataShield supports all browsers and protects you no matter what you’re doing, whether it’s surfing the Web, sending emails, instant messaging or making a VoIP call.

Monthly and yearly licenses are available and each license can be activated on up to 3 devices.
Install NetZero DataShield on your Android, iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad device. Software is also available for your MAC and PC.
