Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP)

Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) is a method used to create a secure connection between your device and a network over the internet. It uses standard HTTPS (the same secure protocol used for secure websites) to encrypt data, making it difficult for outsiders to access or intercept your information. SSTP is often employed in Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) to protect privacy, enable remote access to corporate resources, and ensure secure communication over potentially insecure networks like Wi-Fi hotspots. Its ability to work through firewalls and proxies makes it a reliable choice for secure remote networking.
