Does AT&T provide a VPN?

Yes, AT&T ActiveArmor advanced internet security provides a VPN Connection. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) not only mask your real IP address, but they also use encryption to scramble data to protect it from unintended recipients. Using the AT&T VPN can provide privacy and security and protect your identity as well 2 . That’s why AT&T provides access to a VPN with ActiveArmor advanced internet security.
