Golden Frog VyprVPN Review

Golden Frog VyprVPN

We reviewed Golden Frog VyprVPN to see how it compared to other leading personal VPN services and were impressed by a number of features
that set it apart from its competitors.

Golden Frog VyprVPN- No 3^rd party servers

Other VPN services employ hosted server solutions that use third parties. Golden Frog uses their own server clusters that offer greater reliability and performance. For example, if a server has an outage, the user automatically gets connected to another server in the cluster.
Server clusters also make it easier to connect to Golden Frog VyprVPN. Rather than having to scroll through a long list of servers, we were able to simply select a location to establish a connection.
VyprVPN’s server clusters ensure that servers are never overloaded or unavailable. Golden Frog writes their code, and their entire VPN server infrastructure is built around state-of-the-art hardware. They have dedicated in-house network engineers available 24x7x365 to ensure Golden Frog’s VyprVPN operates at peak performance.

Golden Frog VyprVPN- Multiple VPN Protocols

Golden Frog VyprVPN- VPN Apps for Every Device

A great feature of the VyprVPN service is that it supports more devices than other VPN providers, offering desktop and mobile apps for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android.  The apps are  simple to use and allow users to easily switch between server locations and protocols with a single click or tap.

 

 

Golden Frog VyprVPN- NAT Firewall

Golden Frog also offers a NAT Firewall option to their users as an additional layer of security when using VyprVPN. The NAT Firewall blocks unrequested inbound traffic when you’re connected to VyprVPN, preventing third parties from exploiting security vulnerabilities. No additional configuration or software is required because the NAT Firewall runs on the VyprVPN servers. NAT Firewall protects any device connected to VyprVPN.

Golden Frog VyprVPN- Final thoughts
Golden Frog VyprVPN is a powerful personal VPN with truly unique features and it is easy to see why VyprVPN is a leader in the Personal VPN market. The creators of VyprVPN, Golden Frog, are Internet veterans who have owned and operated Internet businesses since the dawn of the public Internet in 1994. We particularly like that Golden Frog uses their own servers and do not outsource to third parties. In our opinion, VyprVPN is the best approach to protecting your security and privacy online
