NordVPN

by NordVPN

NordVPN is a virtual private network service provided by Nord Security, a Lithuanian cybersecurity company founded in Vilnius. While registered in Panama for jurisdictional privacy benefits, the company's development team and headquarters are based in Lithuania. NordVPN offers users the ability to secure their internet connection by encrypting online traffic, enhancing privacy and security. Key features include Double VPN, which routes traffic through two servers for added security, and obfuscated servers that help bypass internet censorship. The CyberSec feature provides protection against malware and intrusive ads. NordVPN supports peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing on all its servers and includes an automatic kill switch to prevent data leaks if the VPN connection drops. Additional features include DNS leak protection, split tunneling for directing specific traffic through the VPN, and an option for a dedicated IP address. NordVPN operates under a subscription-based pricing model, offering various plans to accommodate different user needs. The service benefits from Panama's strong privacy laws, with no mandatory data retention requirements.
