Abstract
A method for providing a notification system in a virtual private network (VPN), the method comprising configuring a VPN server to receive, from a user device, an indication that data of interest is to be requested, the indication including domain information associated with a host device capable of providing the data of interest; and configuring the VPN server to transmit, based at least in part on the domain information, a notification indicating to the user device that the data of interest to be received from the host device potentially includes harmful content. Various other aspects are contemplated.

A method for providing a notification system in a virtual private network (VPN), the method comprising:
- configuring a VPN server to receive, from a user device, an indication that data of interest is to be requested, the indication including domain information associated with a host device capable of providing the data of interest;
- and
- configuring the VPN server to transmit, based at least in part on the domain information, a notification indicating to the user device that the data of interest to be received from the host device potentially includes harmful content.
A device associated with a virtual private network (VPN), the device comprising:
- a memory;
- and a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the processor being configured to:
- configure a VPN server to receive, from a user device, an indication that data of interest is to be requested, the indication including domain information associated with a host device capable of providing the data of interest;
- and
- configure the VPN server to transmit, based at least in part on the domain information, a notification indicating to the user device that the data of interest to be received from the host device potentially includes harmful content.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with a virtual private network (VPN), cause the processor to:
- configure a VPN server to receive, from a user device, an indication that data of interest is to be requested, the indication including domain information associated with a host device capable of providing the data of interest;
- and configure the VPN server to transmit, based at least in part on the domain information, a notification indicating to the user device that the data of interest to be received from the host device potentially includes harmful content.
