About

Take your online security to the next level with one of the fastest VPNs for Linux, now with an easy-to-use GUI when downloaded from the Snap store. Whether you’re working from home or browsing over your hotel’s Wi-Fi, explore the internet with peace of mind. **More security** * **Secure connection.** Without encryption, your online traffic is vulnerable. NordVPN encrypts your connection to stop malicious actors from potentially stealing data. * **Malicious domain blocker.** Don’t let misclicks take you to dangerous websites. Once turned on, Threat Protection will block access to known malicious domains. * **Kill Switch.** Prevent leaks when you unexpectedly lose connection to NordVPN. Kill Switch automatically cuts off online access until your VPN connection is restored. * **Specialty servers.** Get even more security from our Double VPN servers. Combine the privacy of the Tor browser with extra VPN security thanks to Onion Over VPN. **More privacy** * **Private online activity.** Unencrypted online traffic may be observed by others, including your ISP. Using NordVPN shields your online activity from prying eyes. * **New virtual location.** Connect to a VPN server to use its IP address — and change your virtual location. NordVPN offers 8,200+ VPN servers covering 165 locations. * **Censorship bypass.** Connecting to NordVPN servers lets you avoid many common censorship measures. Experience the internet with more privacy as it was meant to be. * **Privacy-friendly practices.** NordVPN does not track your online activity. Our practices have been independently verified five times to prove our claims. **More convenience** * **Ad blocker.** Browse the web without ads getting in your way. Turn on our Threat Protection feature for Linux to block ads before they load. * **Easy GUI.** Switch servers, toggle options, and check connection status with a few clicks — NordVPN on the Snap store comes with a handy graphical interface. * **Optimized for speed.** All VPNs slow you down — but with NordVPN’s infrastructure and revolutionary NordLynx protocol (based on WireGuard®), you won’t notice it. * **24/7 support.** Our friendly customer support team is ready to help you at any time. We also have detailed guides covering every NordVPN function in our Help Center. * **SmartPlay.** Stream paid content from home while traveling with no extra steps. Simply connect to a VPN server in your country and enjoy the show.
