Hi would this make a difference if the VM shares the same internet connection as the host ? |

I think you are confusing a VM with a VPN. A VM will have zero effect on you networking traffic. The traffic from the VM goes out over the same network as the host in the end.
It basically makes any potential intrusion not get access to your host system, so yeah. I'm not a security researcher so I won't comment any more on it. There is likely some information online about security implication of virtual machines. |
