In case if the user wants some web page, imagine that he is using a proxy. Here proxy will take the request from the client and initially it will start checking the local cache for that particular information. In case if it finds the same, then there is no need to request the server.

But if in case it is not able to find the request on the local cache, then it will go and request that web page from the internet. Here main this is the client’s IP is not used. But proxy itself acts like client and requests server by using its own IP address. This is the main advantage of proxy since there will not be any leakage in clients information. Once it receives the request, it gives it to the client.

But the best part is the user will not be aware of the entire process. He will have a normal browsing experience without any change. But the only thing is he is protected.
