Hamachi is a safe solution to share files over the Internet or control computers by creating a virtual private network.
Hamachi is an application that allows remote computers to create a virtual private network (VPN), as if they were located on the same physical link, in a very simple manner.
With the help of this software the user can share files, control another computer, launch prints, etc over the Internet. In addition, applications running normally for local networks can be used with Hamachi.
Hamachi does not require specialized knowledge to create their own virtual private network and works with an open architecture. It is able to operate through networks using Network Address Translation (NAT), working even with computers behind routers or firewalls.
Communications are secure and encrypted by algorithms and specific protocols, as well as the use of a password.
The software allows to create as many as desired private network, each protected by a password .
