Why do I need a stealth VPN?

Online privacy is a thing of the past - if it has ever existed in the first place. However, due to the advanced technology used in stealth VPNs, it is possible to hide even your VPN traffic. Surfshark uses several methods to ensure that you can become essentially invisible each time you establish a VPN connection.

Obfuscated VPN servers

Obfuscation is a method that makes sure outsiders (like your internet provider) who may be watching your traffic cannot tell that it’s actually VPN traffic. We call our stealth feature Camouflage Mode, because it disguises the VPN packets of data as something else.

Industry-leading encryption

We use top-of-the-class AES-256-GCM encryption to secure all the data that goes through the VPN tunnel. It makes sure your privacy is protected at all times, even if the snoopers use invasive (and resource intensive) deep packet inspection.

Secure VPN protocols

VPN protocols do a lot of heavy lifting for a stealth VPN’s security. We offer secure Wireguard, OpenVPN, and IKEv2/IPsec protocols that ensure perfect forward secrecy. Together with encryption, they make sure your data is safe.

MultiHop for extra privacy

If we’re talking stealth, MultiHop (also known as Double VPN) is a VPN technology that deserves to be on your shortlist. It allows you to connect via two servers in different countries, which helps you become even harder to trace!

Private DNS & leak protection

It’s important to use a private DNS for all-around privacy. When you use a stealth VPN, you get private DNS on each server. That’s not all - we offer leak protection when using IPv4 stack to make sure you’re always protected.

Strict no-logs policy

All the stealth VPN technology would be useless if the VPN provider was taking your data. Only ever use a VPN like Surfshark: operating under a strict no-logs policy and headquartered in a country allowing that. We don’t know what you’re up to online, and therefore, nobody else can!

When should I use a stealth VPN?

When you live in or travel to a restricted country

Many countries censor and restrict access to the internet, snoop around in their citizens’ private matters, and collect surveillance data on their normal internet traffic. Such countries can use fairly sophisticated detection methods, so if you live or plan to travel there, you should protect your privacy with a stealth VPN.

When you’re worried about online privacy

It’s normal to worry about not being private online when so many governments and corporations track you and collect your data. However, it’s possible to escape this and take matters back into your own hands with a VPN.

When you’re downloading files

Sharing files is restricted or not allowed in many countries. We advise you to respect copyright, but you can still privately share legitimate peer-to-peer files without any worries when you use a stealth VPN.

When you want to protect your whole family

With Surfshark, it’s easy to make sure everyone in your household is safe and sound. You can add unlimited devices per each account and use them all at the same time if you want to!

Disclaimer: Surfshark does not encourage using a VPN in any way that would potentially violate the Terms of Service of other service providers.

Does a stealth VPN make me untraceable?

A good, reliable VPN provider will make you very hard to track and it would require a lot of effort.

However, 100% anonymity is very difficult to achieve and requires a lot of effort on your side.

There is so much more to being anonymous than just using a VPN – for example, you would have to avoid registering to any services, do zero online shopping, and generally avoid anything that could put you online.

Here’s what you CAN do to improve your situation:

Give out as little detail as possible on social media
Be very cautious when filling out online forms
Use a reliable VPN
