VyprVPN is a personal VPN service that secures Internet browsing privacy everywhere, on any device. This remote and personal Virtual Private Network stops hackers, ISP throttling, and third-party data sniffing. More than 25,000 members browse securely with VyprVPN, and the reasons are clear why using a VPN is the only safe way to browse the Internet:
Protect your online identity. VyprVPN establishes a private, secure Internet connection on your laptop, iPhone, iPad, Android or other device to secure your online communications, shopping, banking and browsing.
Fast, secure browsing. A personal VPN eliminates traffic shaping and rate limiting. Keep your ISP from looking at the contents of your communications and deciding to slow it down or block it altogether.
Take a secure connection everywhere. From the Airport terminal to a café or bookstore, a personal VPN allows you to connect through any public Wi-Fi Hotspots without risk of online fraud or identity theft.
Keep your location private. Private browsing capabilities keep websites from identifying your location. Sites will see a VyprVPN IP and location rather than your home or office IP and location.
Restore your Internet freedom. VyprVPN lets you bypass restrictions and appear “native” with your choice of four locations:
USA VPN –Washington, D.C.
USA VPN – Los Angeles
EU VPN – Amsterdam
Asia VPN – Hong Kong
The VyprVPN difference is in our 100% redundant server and global network infrastructure. At Golden Frog, we tune the software and servers 24x7x365, optimizing speed and connectivity. Don’t let your employer, ISP, government or anyone else control what you view or where you view it. Keep your Internet privacy and experience the web as it was intended to be experienced. Get VyprVPN today.
We’re proud to announce that Golden Frog has added L2TP/IPsec as an additional protocol for VyprVPN. L2TP/IPsec uses 256-bit IPsec encryption – the same strength used by banking and financial websites. VyprVPN Pro customers get L2TP/IPsec today for no additional charge!
L2TP/IPsec is supported natively on a number of mobile devices, giving you an even stronger level of encryption when browsing on your iPhone, iPad, Android device and more.
Having L2TP/IPsec allows you to bypass firewalls that may block PPTP or OpenVPN. With more protocol choices, you get more freedom to protect your information and activity.
New customers will sometimes ask us why their firewall software will show lots of incoming connection alerts after they connect to VyprVPN.
The reason is simple: When you connect to VyprVPN, you’re getting a direct connection to the Internet. Since most people use wireless routers at home and corporate firewalls at work, they’re not used to being directly connected to the Internet with no filter. VyprVPN bypasses these filters, and so customers start seeing all of the random attempts to scan and exploit systems that go on all the time.
Today, we’re releasing our NAT Firewall feature. This add-on behaves much like your wireless router — it doesn’t let new connections from the Internet reach your VyprVPN system. All the connections you make will work just fine. It’s the people scanning for exploits and unpatched systems that will be blocked.
Any of our VyprVPN customers can add this feature for just $5/month. If you want extra protection or just want to stop those firewall alerts, try it out today!
