FAQ

How does the VPN client for Mac work?

A VPN (short for virtual private network) establishes an encrypted connection between your MacBook, iMac, or other Apple device and a VPN server. This is done using a virtual tunnel that the VPN client for Mac establishes to the VPN server and through which data is transmitted in an encrypted format.

At the same time, the VPN software swaps your Mac’s assigned IP address for the VPN server’s address, allowing you to surf anonymously and protect your online privacy. Check out our blogpost to learn more about how a VPN works.
