So why Globus Browser? At the moment Globus VPN+TOR is totally free! For All devices!  Now the beta version of the new browser is available! See details about operation of the new browser in one of the videos below.

Globus Browser – First Ever VPN+TOR Privacy Browser. Full anonymity and security at the highest level. 

Globus has created a Virtual Private Network (VPN) browser built on the Chromium base. The browser is specifically designed to escape from service providers' restrictions.  As technology progresses, privacy and security become an escalating issues, Globus Browser is the solution to these concerns.

Globus is the answer for the growing international demand for secure applications.  Our product is far easier, more reliable and convenient to use than any other solution available today. Globus Browser is an “Out of the Box” product with no limitations by default, which is simple and secure unlike most of the other available VPN solutions.

How does it work?

With the help of the VPN agent, all traffic is automatically redirected through Globus owned servers in England, Germany, US, Russia and other countries. Every user can choose the preferred location of the server through which the traffic will be redirected at any time with a click of a mouse.… It’s just that simple!

Globus uses the encryption key of 1028-bit to 2048-bit, meaning even the most sophisticated machine will require more than one million years to hack the key. By following available protocols as IPSEC VPN (universal and very fast) and OpenVPN (steady and extremely secure) it guarantees that this encryption type will indisputably protect your private information with ease.

Further more Globus has managed to embrace the VPN and Tor together for even higher level of privacy and security. Globus Servers+TOR allows you to visit the sites closed for the usual Internet browsing.

For those unaware or unfamiliar with VPN or Tor, we will explain what these are and how they enable the highest level of privacy and security.

Brief Introduction of VPN…  

Every Internet user will realize that all his or her actions on the Internet are written by his Internet Service Provider (ISP) or may be intercepted by third parties and that his personal IP address can be equated to his passport number.

This is how an ordinary Internet connection looks like. All Internet traffic is not encrypted. The destination node sees your real IP address.

And this is how a VPN Internet connection looks like. All Internet traffic is encrypted. The destination node sees VPN server's IP address.

Have you ever thought about the fact that absolutely all of your actions on the Internet can be tracked and used against your will? After all, ISP's usually collect all this data as they are bound to store it for quite a long time.

Globus VPN technology creates a secure tunnel between your PC and one of the VPN servers. The tunnel encrypts all user's’ Internet traffic (including all applications' traffic) and hides user’s IP address by replacing it with the IP address of the VPN server. VPN service will become a supporting tool for those who care about safety and anonymity and those who don't want to share their personal data with their ISP's and those websites they visit.

Benefits of Globus VPN Secure Privacy Browser and TOR

• Unblock websites - Unblock YouTube, unblock Facebook, unblock Twitter, sites at school, the library, gaming sites or your office with Globus Secure Privacy Browser from anywhere. You can bypass filters and firewalls set by your network administrator to gain access to your favorite content.
• Anonymous surfing - Because of privacy and security concerns, you may want to browse the Web anonymously. Globus Secure Privacy Browser creates an encrypted tunnel between your computer and our servers to let you conduct your online activities (visit the websites you want, make online transactions, download files) anonymously, without being tracked and spied upon.
• Hide your IP address - The Internet is infested with spammers, snoopers, and hackers. They silently monitor your online activities and steal your sensitive data like credit card information and passwords when you least expect it. If you connect with Globus Secure Privacy Browser VPN enabled, you get a new US IP address to mask your actual IP address and surf the Internet anonymously.
• Private & secure browsing - VPN offers an enhanced level of security online. Whenever you connect to the Internet through Globus Secure Privacy Browser and VPN, your data, including passwords, financial transactions and instant messages, is secured and encrypted. Additionally, your personal information is hidden from web spies.
• Wi-Fi security - If you browse the Internet at a public Wi-Fi hotspot like the Starbucks in your town, anyone on that network can monitor and spy on your web activities. Irrespective of where you connect from, a personal VPN secures your web browsing session and keeps your private data considerably more private.
• Malware protection - Globus Secure Privacy Browser VPN and TOR will alert you if you visit sites that are 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 your device.
• Having made a server choice from TOR You will have an opportunity to visit all available TOR networks so that your provider will never find out about using TOR networks by You. (these networks will not be available unless you have chosen the server from TOR)
  

Brief Introduction of Tor…

Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. Tor provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy.

Using Tor protects you against a common form of Internet surveillance known as "traffic analysis." Traffic analysis can be used to infer who is talking to whom over a public network. Knowing the source and destination of your Internet traffic allows others to track your behavior and interests.

How does traffic analysis work? Internet data packets have two parts: a data payload and a header used for routing. The data payload is whatever is being sent, whether that's an email message, a web page, or an audio file.

A basic problem for the privacy minded is that the recipient of your communications can see that you sent it by looking at headers. So can authorized intermediaries like Internet service providers, and sometimes unauthorized intermediaries as well. A very simple form of traffic analysis might involve sitting somewhere between sender and recipient on the network, looking at headers.

Once a circuit has been established, many kinds of data can be exchanged and several different sorts of software applications can be deployed over the Tor network. Because each relay sees no more than one hop in the circuit, neither an eavesdropper nor a compromised relay can use traffic analysis to link the connection's source and destination. Tor only works for TCP streams and can be used by any application with SOCKS support.

For efficiency, the Tor software uses the same circuit for connections that happen within the same ten minutes or so. Later requests are given a new circuit, to keep people from linking your earlier actions to the new ones.

Globus VPN + TOR…

This is a perfect security solution when users can route Tor through VPN services which will prevent your ISP from seeing that you're using Tor. On one hand, VPNs are more popular than Tor, so you won't stand out as much, but on the other hand, in some countries replacing an encrypted Tor connection with an encrypted VPN connection, would be suspicious as well but not with Globus VPN where one can select a specific server in a specific country of your 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 Tor client) will route through it.

Another advantage here is that this prevents Tor from seeing who you are behind the Globus VPN. So if somebody somehow does manage to break Tor and learn the IP address your traffic is coming from, but your VPN was actually following through on their premises (they won't watch, they won't remember, and they will somehow magically make it so nobody else is watching either), then you'll be better off. But this will not happen. 

Mobile Friendly !

Globus Browser also comes as a Mobile Application which supports all browsers for Android, Apple and other smartphones and tablets devices. Also with the help of our users and supporters we are planning to develop a full version of Globus Browser for smartphones and Tablets.  

Do You know that visiting the top 50 websites will install over 3,000 tracking files on your computer!?

Over 80% of websites use one or more tracking tools but with your help we can provide a solution. This fact prompted us to dig deeper for a solution to keep our computers safe and private!

What will be done with the funds?

Please see our short video where we explain what we plan to do with the funds we raise.

PRIVACY LEAKAGES THAT GLOBUS PREVENTS

Block Ads

Globus Secure Privacy Browser blocks all annoying ads on the web by default: video ads for example on YouTube, Facebook ads, flashy banners, pop-ups, pop-unders and much more. It does this based on the filter lists you've chosen.

Acceptable Ads

Many websites rely on advertising revenues, so instead of blocking all ads, we decided to try and encourage websites to use non-intrusive advertising instead of annoying ads people are most like to ignore and want to block.

Disable Tracking

With every browsing session, there are multiple firms tracking your online activity and browsing history. There are hundreds of ad agencies tracking your every move, but with Globus Secure Privacy Browser you can easily disable most tracking, and browse the web more anonymously.

Disable Malware Domains

Slow startup, popups, advertisers hijacking our browser: Those are all signs of your computer being infected by malware. Even worse, computers infected by malware open the doors to all kinds of cyber criminality threats. These infected computers can then be used to sending out spam emails or attacking other computers or servers, stealing passwords, social security numbers, personal documents and credit card information.

Globus Secure Privacy Browser can be configured to block domains known to spread malware, protecting your computer against viruses, Trojan horses, worms, spy- and adware.

Disable Social Media Buttons

Buttons to share content on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus and many others are placed on almost every website you visit. Even if you are not clicking them, every website containing these buttons is sending a request to the servers of the social network which can use that information to create a profile based on your browsing habits.

You can use Globus Privacy Browser to remove social media buttons from every website, making sure that social networks can’t create a profile about you based on the websites you visit.

NO Data Collection. Unlike other tracker blockers & privacy tools, Globus NEVER collects, shares or sells any data from our users!

SEARCH PROTECTION

All your searches are private in Globus. 
When you visit any of the world’s leading search engines in Globus, your searches are automatically directed via  vpn to prevent search engines from saving your searches by your IP address.

REFERER HEADER DATA NOT SENT

Unlike other browsers, Globus does not send data about search terms you’ve entered to other 
websites when you click on links from a search engine.

DO NOT TRACK SIGNAL ALWAYS - ON

And don’t worry, we also vigorously block them from tracking you!

LOCAL ADDRESS BAR AUTO-COMPLETE

Globus auto-completes URL’s as you type them in its address bar via a database stored locally on your computer. Other browsers send what you type in the address bar to their servers to get suggestions which means that they know every search you make and site you visit which can violate your privacy
