Platform and Devices Accessibility

If you’re looking for protection against spyware, malware, and other cyber threats, Nord Security’s tools can come in handy. This company currently offers five cybersecurity products:

• NordVPN: a fast and reliable VPN and malware blocker with P2P optimized servers, two kill switches (an internet switch that blocks internet access and an app kill switch to close the apps you want to when you’re not connected to the VPN), encrypted cloud storage of 1TB, DNS leak protection, and advanced threat protection, among other features. NordVPN has more than 5,500 servers in 80 locations and 50+ countries. You can rely on this high-speed VPN to deter malware, fishing, and adware. The VPN boasts a Panama registration and has a no-logging policy. It successfully unlocks geoblocked websites and performs well without significantly affecting device performance.

• NordLayer: a network access security solution that enables companies to transition to SASE and provides SaaS security, secure remote access, and malware prevention.

• NordPass: a password manager that automatically generates and memorizes complex and unique passwords across all devices, then stores them in NordPass using XChaCha20 encryption.

• NordLocker: an end-to-end encrypted cloud to store files and access them fast and easily, at any time. NordLocker offers malware protection. It is compatible with any type of file, has no encryption limit, and synchronizes your data.

• NordWL: this is a suite of tools that allows you to build your own VPN while leveraging Nord Security’s know-how and infrastructure.

These tools are available on different platforms and compatible with any system, including iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux.
For mobile phone users, compatibility is not an issue. For example, the NordVPN mobile app works seamlessly. Plus, there are plenty of tutorials on how to use the app.
