NordVPN creates an encrypted “tunnel” over the internet to protect the data traveling between you and your internet destination — anything from your online banking account to a video-sharing website to a search engine.

This tunnel is created by first authenticating your computer with a VPN server. The server then uses one of several encryption protocols to make sure that no one can monitor the information traveling between you and your online destination.

Once you're connected to a server, you can browse safely even if you close the app – NordVPN will stay running. Worried about an unstable connection? Enable NordVPN's automatic Kill Switch feature. It won't let you access the internet if your VPN connection accidentally drops.

Yes, you can use NordVPN when traveling. It will help you be safer on unsecured wireless networks and keep access to the content and sites you’re used to. We also offer an obfuscated server option for countries that restrict VPN usage. Please check our Help Center for further instructions on how to use the obfuscated servers.

Using a password manager helps you to generate strong passwords, store them in one secure and convenient location, sync passwords across all your devices, and automatically fill in your login information.

If you’re looking for a hassle-free way to create and remember passwords, you can get our password manager, NordPass, on top of your VPN subscription.

On an encrypted cloud, you can store your documents, photos, videos, and folders safely. You can access them wherever you go and be sure your files are backed up, synced, and protected from snoopers and malware.

If you want to keep your files safe, you can buy our end-to-end encrypted cloud storage service, NordLocker, along with your VPN subscription.
