LONDON, April 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - The solution to secure browsing on the Internet is finally here. The new Globus Browser is transforming online security, giving users peace of mind knowing that they are protected when they surf the web. By combining VPN and Tor, Globus Browser is able to provide the highest level of anonymity and security to all Internet users to prevent cybercrime, unwanted surveillance, and identity theft. To make this possible, the company has launched an IndieGoGo campaign to raise $50,000 by May 24th, 2015.
Currently, Globus Browser is completely free. Screenshots of the beta version of the browser can be found on the company website. The software is built on the Chromium base that allows individuals to escape from pesky service provider restrictions, while adding more security to everyday Internet surfing. It is simple to use, reliable, and a convenient option that is so advanced it can be used at an international level.
Globus works with a VPN (Virtual Private Network) where all of the Internet traffic is encrypted and redirected through Globus-owned services in locations around the world. There are servers in England, Germany, the US, Russia, and many other areas. When the browser is ready, there will be about 35 different host countries. The encryption key is an advanced 1028 bit to 2048 bit, which means it is secure from even the most experienced hackers.
Users of Globus Browser can simply click where they want the traffic to be redirected, which will protect people from cyber criminals knowing where their IP address is. Consider it a secure tunnel between a person's PC and server. Pair this with sophisticated Tor technology, and the formula for maximum online security is created, especially since each time someone visits a site they could potentially receive thousands of tracking files on their computer. The software is now available on mobile as well.
Globus VPN + Tor
This perfect security solution, with which users can route Tor through VPN services, will prevent their ISP from seeing that they're using Tor. On one hand, VPNs are more popular than Tor, so users won't stand out as much. On the other hand, in some countries replacing an encrypted Tor connection with an encrypted VPN connection, would be suspicious. However, with Globus VPN, users can select a specific server in a specific country of their choice. This is a win, win!
Once the VPN client has connected, the VPN tunnel will be the machine's default Internet connection, and TBB (Tor Browser Bundle, or the Tor client) will route through it.
Another advantage here is that this prevents Tor from seeing who users are behind the Globus VPN. Furthermore, Globus has managed to embrace the VPN and Tor bundle for an even higher level of privacy and security. Globus Servers + Tor allows users to visit the sites closed from the usual Internet .onion
Benefits of Globus VPN Secure Privacy Browser and Tor

They silently monitor online activities and steal sensitive data like credit card information and passwords when users least expect it. If users connect with Globus Secure Privacy Browser VPN enabled, they get a new US IP address to mask their actual IP address and surf the Internet anonymously.
- Private & secure browsing - VPN offers an enhanced level of security online. Whenever users connect to the Internet through Globus Secure Privacy Browser and VPN, their data, including passwords, financial transactions and instant messages, is secured and encrypted.
- Wi-Fi security - When users browse the Internet at a public Wi-Fi hotspot, anyone on that network can monitor their web activities. Irrespective of where users connect from, a personal VPN secures their web browsing session and keeps their private data private.
- Malware protection - Globus Secure Privacy Browser VPN and Tor will alert users if they visit sites known to contain malware, and then block the site. It detects and blocks more than 3.5 million malicious, phishing and spam sites from infecting a device.
Capital raised from IndieGoGo will be used to finish development of the software to get it ready to launch globally.
