What is a proxy?

A proxy or proxy server can be a dedicated appliance or an application based server that stands between the client request to the actual remote server. This means that the client wants to open a website, for example, the browser request is sent to the proxy server, the proxy server sends the request to the webserver that holds the site downloading the data on the proxy server and transfer the data to the client.
Using a proxy you can hide your real IP address. It can also behave as another layer of security. The proxy server downloads the files, scan them and only if they are clean it sends them to the client.
