Secure your online privacy with Proton VPN
Proton VPN was created by the same team of scientists who met at CERN that founded Proton Mail, the trusted encrypted email provider.
Hide your IP address from advertisers
Online trackers use your IP address to deliver personalized ads to you. By connecting to Proton VPN, you can remain private and avoid having advertisers monitor your online activity.
Hide your browsing activity from your ISP
Your internet service provider knows your device’s IP address and can monitor your browsing activity. When you use a VPN, your ISP can only see the IP address of the VPN server you are connected to, letting you browse privately and securely.
Strong encryption standards
Proton VPN uses strong encryption to protect against two common IP leak vectors: DNS and IPv6 leaks. Your IP address will never be visible on the internet when you are connected to our VPN servers.
