Secure All Your Devices with the WireGuard® Protocol and VPN Unlimited App
VPN Unlimited is a cross-platform security solution, so it doesn’t matter whether you have an Android phone, iOS tablet, macOS laptop, or Windows PC. You can safeguard all of them!
VPN Unlimited Features to Protect Your Network
VPN Unlimited implements the AES 256-bit encryption that is considered by the US government as trusted top-level protection. This encryption makes your traffic look like a set of random symbols. Therefore, if any hacker gets lucky to intercept your data, they couldn’t decipher it.
Our WireGuard® VPN client establishes a secure connection, also known as a private encrypted tunnel, between your Windows device and a chosen virtual server. As a result, all your traffic is routed through this tunnel and thereby is reliably protected from being monitored by any unauthorized parties.
Our Virtual Private Network solution disguises your real IP address and replaces it with the IP of the selected VPN server. Freely choose from 3000+ high-speed servers that are based in over 80 locations all over the world and get unrestricted access to the internet without any obstacles on your way.
Even the strongest WireGuard® VPN protocols may have some failures. That’s why our team developed the Kill Switch option. This feature aims to prevent unforeseen data leaks. How? Kill Switch constantly monitors the status of VPN connection and instantly restricts your internet access if it detects some disruptions.
