Windscribe is a program for Windows that allows you to connect to a virtual private network to ensure the protection of your personal data as well as bypass blocked websites. Similar to PrivadoVPN, this application replaces the real IP address and hides your location. It also supports the function of restricting network activity in case the secure connection is broken.

Connection

The graphical user interface features a fresh and modern layout well suited for people with varied levels of experience of operating VPN services. In order to get access to the main function, you need to create a free account. Next, you can launch the software and select the location of the server. You have the ability to choose the USA, Germany, Netherlands, Canada or another country. The tool is also capable of automatically searching for a node that provides the optimal connection speed.

Security

With the help of this utility, you are able to visit different blocked websites. In addition, it allows you to protect your personal data from interception while working on a public WiFi network. It is necessary to mention that you can enable a firewall that blocks malicious access attempts if your connection to the VPN server is lost.
