A VPN server is either a virtual or physical server that hosts and provides VPN services to users around the world. It’s an amalgamation of VPN software and VPN hardware that enables VPN clients to establish an encrypted connection over less secure networks.

What is a VPN Server Address?

What Do VPN Servers Do?
A VPN server acts as a middleman between you and the internet. When you connect to it, two things happen. First, the traffic to and from your device is encrypted, keeping your online activities safe from ISPs, hackers, and other third parties. Second, you’re assigned another IP address from the VPN server, hiding your actual one from websites and services.
