PureVPN tasked Alitus IT to verify and test their VPN servers, server configurations and system logs to gain assurance regarding the VPN services no log claims.Īltius IT concluded that PureVPNs no log claims more than stack up and confirm that absolutely no information is stored that could be deemed personally identifiable information. In September 2019 the company published a report conducted by Altius IT, an independent third-party security audit and risk management service, who have put Pure VPNs no logs claims to test. PureVPN have recently stepped up its ‘no logs VPN’ policy and wish to highlight their transparency and trustworthiness which is great to hear. It’s also a smart choice as a VPN provider for those travelling to or living in highly censored jurisdictions such as China, the UAE and India etc with its fantastic ability to overcome strong censorship barriers. Users also benefit from the option of using their handy split tunnelling feature which allows you to encrypt your connection and set it to another location (such as the US from the UK), whilst still keeping the ability to connect to local devices on your home network such as your printer etc. There is also DNS leak protection, first party DNS, IPV6 leak blocking and WebRTC leak blocking. PureVPN also offer a good selection of advanced privacy features such as the must have VPN kill switch which keeps you hidden even in the event your VPN connection drops.
Whilst the app is running, your IP address is hidden by unbreakable AES-256 encryption which is used by all the top VPN providers.Īdditionally, VPN protocols include our favoured OpenVPN as well as IKEv2, L2TP, PPTP & SSTP.
PureVPN has a solid privacy setup and it’s clear that user security is well thought out and respected. For example, you can choose which mode you want to be in whether that be streaming, internet freedom, dedicated IP, security/privacy or file sharing, and the app also includes a handy ‘quick connect’ button for those users who just want quick and easy no frills protection. Inside the apps, there are a whole host of settings users can play with. And for those users looking to torrent, PureVPN have exactly the same dedicated servers for you (except for users in The UK, The US, Canada and Australia where torrenting is not permitted). PureVPN is a favourite of ours for streaming thanks to its dedicated servers, fantastic speeds and its ability to successfully unblock many of the popular streaming services such as US Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Hulu etc. Encryption is delivered by military grade AES-256 to ensure your IP address is kept hidden at all times, and thanks to a range of VPN protocols, your connection always secure.Īdditional security features such as a the must have VPN kill switch, split tunnelling and handy automatic wi-fi protection are all built in, with the latter keeping you protected when your device comes into range of public wi-fi. PureVPN comes with plenty of great features so you won’t be left feeling short changed should you make a purchase. PureVPN customers can protect up to 10 devices with one account and their service is backed up with a handy 31-day money back guarantee should it not live up to your expectations. Their stripped back and easy to use applications are backed up with some smart security features and also allow the more advanced user to pick and choose how they would like to use the app by selecting VPN protocols or changing further settings should they wish. And it’s almost the same good news when it comes to torrenting with once again, dedicated servers built for this purpose (in all countries except The UK, The US, Canada and Australia… which we do appreciate are quite major markets!). When it comes to streaming, their apps consistently unblock the likes of Netflix, BBC iPlayer and many more thanks to their built in, dedicated streaming servers.
