Secure your Chrome browser
Encrypt your connection
For ultimate online security, using a VPN (virtual private network) encrypts the traffic between your Chrome browser and the website. That way, if anyone like your ISP (Internet Service Provider) tries to spy on what you're doing online, they'll have difficulty seeing anything.
Hide your online address
Your online activities lead to your IP (Internet Protocol) address getting logged. It also leads back to you. Install a VPN Chrome extension to replace your real IP address with another IP from a VPN server.
Don’t worry about logs
A quality and paid VPN like Surfshark operates under a strict no-logs policy. It even maintains servers that would go blank if anyone tried to seize them. Plus, unlike free VPNs, a paid VPN allows you unlimited bandwidth for all your devices.
Connect to a VPN server and access the open internet
Your government might not like you reading foreign news sources. Your workplace or school would like you not to access YouTube on their Wi-Fi. However, a Chrome browser VPN extension can overcome those blocks.
Bypass local firewalls
When a school, dorm, workplace, or other similar internet supplier blocks your online activity, they use fairly simple methods. Using a Chrome VPN extension can bypass them - and many others.
Visit censored websites
Some countries prevent search engines from accessing regular websites like Facebook and Instagram. However, even through a Chrome VPN, a reliable VPN connection can get past these restrictions and access websites.
Surfshark does not encourage using a VPN in any way that would potentially violate the Terms of Service of other service providers.

protocols
There are many VPN protocols out there, but the one everyone’s talking about right now is WireGuard. It’s fast, secure, sleek, and fits every occasion like a black t-shirt would, and works on every device.
Try to spot any drop in speed
A VPN protocol impacts your speed, but so does the distance to the server. With Surfshark’s 3200+ servers (some with 10Gbps ports) in 65+ countries, one will always be nearby. You can also choose to connect to the fastest server automatically.

Is there a free VPN extension for Chrome?
You can find a free Chrome VPN extension, but it’s usually not worth it. A free VPN service offers a much lower quality of service in terms of speed, features, and server variety. They might even compromise your privacy and security.

Does Chrome have a VPN extension?
Yes, VPN extensions for Google Chrome exist. Their main difference from a VPN app is that extensions only protect the browser traffic. If you’re also using the internet via other apps, that traffic will remain unprotected.
