What Are Proxies?
Proxies act as intermediaries between users and the internet, routing requests to help mask IP addresses, enhance privacy, and improve security.
Types of Proxies
- HTTP Proxies: Designed for web traffic.
- SOCKS Proxies: Handle a broader range of internet protocols.
- Residential Proxies: Use real IP addresses for high anonymity.
- Datacenter Proxies: Offer fast, cost-effective solutions.
Benefits of Using Proxies
Proxies can provide anonymity, help bypass restrictions, and protect sensitive data. However, users should be cautious of potential limitations and risks associated with proxy use.
