IVPN.net is a virtual private network (VPN) service provider that provides users with a secure and anonymous connection to the Internet. The service encrypts all data sent and received over the internet, allowing users to hide their online activity from their Internet Service Provider (ISP) and other third-party services. IVPN.net provides additional services such as DNS leak protection and a ‘multihop’ feature, which allows users to connect to multiple servers in different countries, providing extra privacy and security. IVPN.net also provides unlimited server switching, allowing users to switch between servers to find the best connection. Finally, IVPN.net also provides a ‘no logs’ policy, which means that it does not store any user activity data.
Warning This application is suspected of malicious behavior, although these allegations are in dispute. The software allegedly connects to financial institution and government websites, and uses the PC for attacks against them. It disables SSL certificate checks and allows man-in-the-middle attacks to steal authentication credentials. It hooks into the browser and uses suspicious compression to hide parts of the program.
Bundleware The software displays ads and was bundled with browser hijackers in the past.
