Knowledge is power - this applies equally to the private person and the hacker.
Read our initial project for context on why a VPN is necessary to protect your devices against spyware:
THE DEFINITION OF A VPN?
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is technology designed to enhance online privacy and security by creating a secure and encrypted connection between your device and the internet.
KEY FEATURES:
Encryption:
A VPN encrypts your internet traffic, which means that your data is encoded and protected from being intercepted or read by third parties, such as hackers or government agencies.
IP Address Masking:
It masks your IP address, making your online activities harder to trace back to you.
Instead of using your actual IP address, you use one provided by the VPN service.
Secure Connection:
It routes your internet traffic through a secure server operated by the VPN provider, which adds an extra layer of security and privacy.
Access Restricted Content:
A VPN allows you to bypass geographic restrictions by connecting to servers in different locations, enabling access to content that might be restricted in your region.
WHERE TO GET A VPN:
You can obtain a VPN from various sources, including:
VPN Service Providers:
Several reputable VPN companies offer services in South Africa.
Popular VPN providers include:
NordVPN: Known for its robust security features and extensive server network.
ExpressVPN: Offers high-speed connections and an easy-to-use interface.
Surfshark: Provides cost-effective plans with strong security features.
CyberGhost: Features a large number of servers and robust privacy policies.
ProtonVPN: Offers a free version with strong privacy protections and a paid version with additional benefits.
Official Websites:
Visit the official websites of these VPN providers to select a plan and download their software.
Ensure you are downloading from the official site to avoid malware.
App Stores:
Many VPN services are available on app stores like Google Play (for Android) and the Apple App Store (for iOS).
Be sure to download apps from reputable developers to ensure security.
Local Reviews and Comparisons:
Research local reviews and comparisons to find VPN services well-suited to South African users.
Look for features such as local server options and performance in South Africa.
USING A VPN AGAINST SPYWARE:
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) encrypts your internet connection, which helps shield your data from interception, particularly on public or unsecured Wi-Fi networks.
While a VPN does not prevent spyware from being installed directly on your device, many top VPNs, like NordVPN and Surfshark, include additional security features that block malicious sites and avoid spyware downloads.
These VPNs often provide tools like ad and pop-up blockers to further protect you from spyware.
NEXT STEPS:
Choose a VPN Provider:
Select a VPN service based on your needs, such as security, speed, cost, and server locations.
Sign Up and Download:
Subscribe to the VPN service and download the software or app from the provider’s official website or app store.
Install and Set Up:
Follow the installation instructions for the VPN service.
Configure the settings according to your preferences.
Connect to a Server:
Launch the VPN application and connect to a server of your choice.
Depending on your needs, you can choose a server in South Africa or another location.
Browse Securely:
Once connected, your online activities will be encrypted, and your IP address will be masked, providing enhanced privacy and security.
Following these guidelines will enhance your online security and reduce the likelihood of spyware infections.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.
STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
