Akhyar Lubis, Wirda Fitriani, Suhada Sahf Alfad

Abstract


Abstract:  Privacy is a fundamental individual right, even in the digital realm. However, awareness of the importance of online privacy is often underestimated by internet users. This research addresses this issue by implementing the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B as a portable VPN router. The research methodology involves observation and literature review. The results demonstrate that using the OpenWRT operating system, a portable VPN router based on Raspberry Pi can encrypt internet access, safeguarding privacy and providing better performance than the OpenVPN Connect application. This portable VPN router offers a practical solution to enhance user data security and network privacy in the digital world, especially when connected to public Wi-Fi networks. This research provides a better understanding of the significance of online privacy and presents an effective alternative to protect it. Using a Raspberry Pi-based portable VPN router, users can access the internet securely and maintain their privacy in the digital realm. The findings of this research contribute to the fields of information security and network technology and offer practical guidance for individuals to enhance their online privacy and security.

Keywords:Data Security, Portable VPN Router, Privacy, OpenWRT, OpenVPN, Raspberry Pi
