 Microsoft Point-to-Point Compression

Microsoft Point-to-Point Compression (MPPC) is a data compression protocol that is used primarily in Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connections. Introduced by Microsoft, MPPC is designed to reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over a network by compressing data before it is sent over the connection. This can enhance the efficiency of the data transfer, leading to faster transmission times and reduced bandwidth usage, which can be particularly beneficial in scenarios such as dial-up connections.
