- WireGuard - Modern, open-source protocol known for its speed and simplicity. Utilising advanced cryptography, it offers secure connections with improved performance.
- OpenVPN (Windows,Android) – The most established, open-source protocol renowned for its maturity and compatibility with a wide-range of platforms.
- IPsec (Mac, iOS) – Developed as an Internet standard protocol, to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity when accessing public networks. Most operating systems already natively support this protocol.
