Does iPad support VPN instead of a proxy which is not secure?

My network security guy said that a VPN is more secure than a proxy, and I have no reason not to believe him. So I want to know, does iPad support a secure VPN service? I require it for personal use.|||Yes, iPad VPN is supported on all Apple devices. If your concern is to secure your IP address, encrypt your Internet connection or simply unblock websites, then VPN is a good option. It is more secure than a proxy.|||Yes it does.
