bypass China\u2019s Great Firewall<\/a> or just get access to different content on streaming platforms like Netflix. It\u2019s also one of the VPN providers with dedicated P2P servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAside from IKEv2\/IPsec, you can also choose between OpenVPN and WireGuard. IKEv2\/IPsec is used with ciphers derived from AES-256-GCM and SHA2-384. IPsec tunnel is secured by AES-256 encryption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Atlas VPN<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Atlas VPN is new to the VPN industry. Nevertheless, it successfully implements IKEv2\/IPsec in its app and also has a free plan. Even though the VPN provider has a modest selection of 750 servers in 37 countries, we expect its network to expand. Since its launch in 2019, the company has expanded its offer and even added WireGuard to its selection of VPN protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company\u2019s free plan with unlimited data and bandwidth is a great way to explore the options of this simple and effective VPN app. The company\u2019s primary focus is on creating servers optimized for streaming, but they also perform great for torrenting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atlas VPN also has an enticing subscription plan – with a three-year commitment the monthly price comes down to the modest price of $1.39 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. ExpressVPN<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you are looking for a renowned VPN provider with an extensive server network, you can\u2019t go wrong with ExpressVPN. It works great with a dedicated Chrome VPN extension and has more than 160 locations in 94 different countries covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ExpressVPN uses other important security features such as a network lock kill switch, private DNS, and split tunneling and keeps no logs on user activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The service is costly, but it also offers plenty in return. In addition to the IKEv2 VPN protocol, ExpressVPN has Lightway (UDP or TCP), OpenVPN (UDP or TCP), and L2TP\/IPSec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Closing Thoughts and Recommendations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Simply put, IKEv2 is an encryption protocol that\u2019s part of the IPSec suite. Aside from being safe and easy to use, it tailors to mobile users and is ideal for highly optimized VPN tunnels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shortcomings of its predecessor, IKEv1, were addressed in the second version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are looking for a VPN provider with IKEv2\/IPSec specifically, we would still recommend finding a provider that also has at least WireGuard or OpenVPN in its offer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
