NordVPN, a prominent cybersecurity company specialising in virtual private network tools, announced the completion of its extensive network development phase, which now includes Greenland, the Isle of Man, Trinidad and Tobago, Bermuda, and Nepal.
With this addition, NordVPN allows users from more than a hundred countries to access the company’s services.
With the completion of its network development, NordVPN servers, now numbering over 6,200, now boast the widest geographic reach among all VPN providers.
This impressive feat was made possible by introducing a new fleet of virtual servers. “The main reason we considered using virtual servers was to provide users access to locations where establishing high-quality physical servers is scarce, usually because of a limited physical server infrastructure. In this situation, virtual servers are an optimal solution, providing speeds and connection quality equal to that of a physical server,” said Marijus Briedis, NordVPN’s Chief Technology Officer.
Virtual servers operate via dedicated physical servers located outside the target country. These physical servers are configured to present an IP address corresponding to a different country, eliminating the need for a physical presence in the target country.
In January 2024, NordVPN introduced its first virtual server in India, with its dedicated physical server in Singapore, showcasing the efficiency of this approach.
The company chose new locations for virtual VPN servers based on the escalating demands and preferences of NordVPN’s client base worldwide.
Furthermore, NordVPN has increased the number of simultaneous connections to accommodate the growing number of devices customers use daily. Users can now secure up to 10 devices using a single Nord account, enhancing privacy and security across multiple devices.
Yesterday, NordVPN introduced Saily, a global eSIM for travellers. In January this year, the company launched the Link Checker tool to warn customers about potential phishing attempts. In December last year, it was reported that the company entered the cyber insurance market.
