VPN.AC SecureProxy

VPN.AC SecureProxy is a secure web-tunnelling extension, or a browser-based VPN.

VPN.AC SecureProxy is a secure web-tunneling browser extension designed for existing vpn.ac customers. Unlike traditional VPNs, it encrypts only your browser traffic by creating a secure tunnel through its proxy servers, ensuring privacy and security while browsing. This browser-based VPN does not require you to route all your PC traffic through a VPN, allowing other applications to continue using your regular ISP connection.

Key features include stealth capabilities against firewall and deep packet inspection (DPI) technologies, reducing the risk of detection typically triggered by classic VPN connections. Please note this extension requires an active, paid vpn.ac account and is intended strictly for existing customers.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

VPN.AC SecureProxy requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
