What is a VPN on Mac?

Mac users are not immune to online threats. Public Wi-Fi attacks, ISP tracking, and network-level exploits affect macOS just as much as any other platform. A VPN encrypts your entire internet connection so that nobody — not hackers on a coffee shop network, not your ISP, not anyone in between — can intercept your data or monitor what you do online.

VeloGuardian is built specifically for macOS using Apple's NetworkExtension framework, so it integrates natively with the operating system. There are no kernel extensions to install, no browser plugins to manage, and no complicated configuration files to edit. It works the way Mac software should — quietly and reliably in the background.

Cloud Shield adds DNS filtering and anti-malware protection on top of the encrypted tunnel, giving you enterprise-grade security without enterprise complexity. Malicious domains, ads, trackers, and botnet traffic are all blocked at the network level before they ever reach your browser or any other app on your Mac.
