Hamachi

Hamachi is a software that allows you to connect several PCs into one virtual network. The program installed on your computer allows you to connect not only Desktop devices that are close to each other, but also those that are separated by kilometers. The software also supports work with web-cameras, faxes and printers. At the moment, two versions of Hamachi have been released. But only the non-commercial version can be downloaded and used for free. Its user functionality is a bit limited - you can combine a maximum of 5 personal computers into one network. The program features are very elaborate, but at the same time easy to implement. VPN technology is used to create a network. This approach allows users to exchange various content in a "closed channel", and also provides serious protection, which does not leave the slightest opportunity for hackers to gain access to their personal information.
