Why It’s Better to Have Your Own VPN with a Static IP

One of the things that many people often overlook is where you access services from. Very often, people simply set up some public VPN and think that this is enough.

But the problem with public VPNs is simple: you don’t know who is behind them and what happens to your traffic.

Therefore, when it comes to a working infrastructure, it is much safer to use your own VPN server.

And another important point is the static IP.

Why is it needed:

• you can create a whitelist for access
• you can restrict access to admin panels
• you can limit access to servers

This means that even if someone leaks a password, they won’t be able to access the system because entry is only allowed from a specific IP.

For example, we use both public VPNs for specific tasks and private solutions when it comes to working with infrastructure.

Plus, there was a case that clearly shows why a stable IP is important.

When the same service starts being accessed from:

• Thailand
• Ukraine
• Germany

the system starts asking questions.

In one case, a registrar simply requested document verification because the accesses looked suspicious.

Therefore, it is better to build operations through a private VPN and static IPs from the start. This greatly simplifies life.
