About Proxy Server:
A proxy server acts as the middleman between the Internet and a network.
- Its advantages include hiding the network from the Internet and storing information in a method called caching.
- No doubt caching will increase the data access speed but at the same time proxy server owner can keep a look on the cache and he/she can find many sensitive data like passwords,user name,web browsing history.
- It is advisable to use proxy server which has trusted and clear privacy policy and never use private data like user name and password through proxy even if it is encrypted also.
So be aware when you are using proxy server.
