Secure and safe, OpenVPN is a virtual private network for Android that allows users to create a private network across a public one, ensuring privacy and anonymity during their using of the internet. Apart from preventing breaches in privacy, this piece of software helps users send and receive data across shared or public networks without fear of it being compromised or used by unscrupulous third parties. To achieve this, the app features a user-friendly interface that visually shows all the possible networks you can connect to.
Unlike most VPN apps out there, OpenVPN is an open-source encryption protocol. This means that its users will have access to the large OpenSSL Library at all times and without paying any fees to tech giants like Microsoft. Even better, the content of this library can't be regulated or censored, allowing users to choose the most convenient encryption protocols at any time. As if all that wasn't enough, because it is an open-source platform, OpenVPN has an entire community of users constantly monitoring it and fixing any bugs.
Unfortunately, OpenVPN is somewhat complex in its design. At the very minimum, its users are required to have a working knowledge of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols in order to customize their network to a satisfactory degree. On the bright side, however, this allows advanced users to ensure that their privacy is kept across a vast range of different platforms. Even better, OpenVPN allows itself to be used as a server via other VPN services such as PureVPN. This can make configuring and using the service a lot easier for beginners.
