ThatsMyJam 0 Posted ... Hello all, I've been with AirVPN for quite a while and I don't plan on leaving because of the awesome service! But, like many of you I do like to investigate the features and reviews of existing and upcoming VPN services. I was using TorGuard a couple of years ago, it was alright but speeds were very inconsistent. Upon checking their VPN Blog page this morning I noticed that there's a post about then using a new technology called OpenConnect, which is supposed to be the fastest and most secure way of connecting to a VPN. I just wanted to know if this is accurate information and if it is does AirVPN use it or are they planning on using it? Here's a link to the blog post: https://torguard.net/blog/torguard-introduces-openconnect-vpn/ Quote Share this post Link to post
zhang888 1066 Posted ... OpenConnect is an implementation of AnyConnect, which is a patented, closed source protocol from Cisco. The AirVPN mission is to use only free, open source software, so the answer is no."Fastest and most secure" is a very questionable statement.The blog post you linked describes AES-256-GSM. This is a very interesting cipher we are not aware of 4 flat4, cm0s, ThatsMyJam and 1 other reacted to this Quote Hide zhang888's signature Hide all signatures Occasional moderator, sometimes BOFH.

ThatsMyJam 0 Posted ... Thanks for the quick response @zhang888. They make it sound like it's the best thing in the world.That's why I love AirVPN, you guys/gals know how to create a VPN service that's straight to the point and don't include any marketing gimmicks to gain more subscribers. Regarding the cipher, I think it was just a typo and they were in-fact referring to GCM. Either way, I wouldn't go back to their service. I love how AirVPN is only open source. Thanks for the great service. You guys rock! Quote Share this post Link to post
