Surf safely through your local network.
The problem
Maybe you already know that your web surfing, e-mail and chat sessions can easily be read by others – especially on your local network environment. It’s often pretty easy to monitor data traffic on hotel networks, hotspots, corporate and home networks as well as regional and national networks.
Our solution
An encrypted VPN tunnel from your computer to a Swiss data center in Zurich, from where you can access the Internet. This ensures your Internet traffic crosses all wireless and wired networks safely and enables you to surf the web from Switzerland.

VPN protocols
Comparison of VPN protocols
L2TP/IPsec
Although L2TP/IPsec is more secure than PPTP, this makes it a little slower.
SSL VPN (SSTP)
The protocol enables you to circumvent any firewall and connect at any time.
OpenVPN
OpenVPN is a very secure protocol that is primarily useful for connections via mobile networks.
PPTP
PPTP uses insecure encryption, but can be used to circumvent country-specific restrictions.
