She has also talked about the different factors that push users to start using NordVPN, including regional tensions, among other things.
VPN Becomes Very Important For Users On The Internet
VPN services are expanding around the world and not only among individuals living in countries with a lack of internet freedom. As Ruby Gonzalez explained, the overall trend is that the use of VPN is spreading and becoming very popular. She has also said that 52% of their clients use the desktop version of the VPN.
Nonetheless, she explained that they have seen an increased number of VPN users for mobile applications.
About it, Ruby Gonzalez said:
“More and more people understand that smartphones are as vulnerable as computers and, therefore, need the same level of protection.”
The company is now focused on offering and providing users with a suite of cybersecurity products. Despite the fact NordVPN is not planning to develop antivirus software, they are working on tracking prevention, something that could be introduced in the future.
NordVPN wants to improve its services by becoming faster, stronger and also more secure. This would allow them to offer an all-round cybersecurity solution.
Finally, Ruby Gonzalez stated that the information security market could reach and surpass $151 billion by 2023. In the last few years, funding in cybersecurity has been increasing, allowing companies to create more advanced and unique products.
