Description

OpenVPN is a widely used open-source virtual private network (VPN) that can be used to securely connect to remote networks and provide secure access to corporate networks, applications, and resources. It is a full-featured software-based VPN solution that is based on a client-server architecture. OpenVPN provides a secure point-to-point or site-to-site connection by creating an encrypted tunnel between the two endpoints, allowing data to be transmitted without risk of interception or sniffing. It also provides a wide range of features such as data encryption, authentication, user access control, and traffic shaping. OpenVPN is a popular choice for businesses that need to securely connect remote offices and for users who need to access resources from home. It is also used for bypassing firewalls and censorships. It supports a variety of platforms such as Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android. It is also easy to setup and configure.
