What is Proxys?

A proxy server acts as an intermediary between a client requesting a resource and the server providing that resource. It can be used for various purposes, including: improving performance by caching content, filtering web traffic, providing anonymity by masking the client's IP address, bypassing geographical restrictions, and enhancing security by inspecting and blocking malicious content. Proxies are commonly used in corporate networks, schools, and by individuals seeking enhanced privacy or access to region-locked content.
