Keywords:
VPN, encryption, security, algorithms, OpenVPN, WireGuard, authentication.Abstract
This article analyzes the fundamental concepts of Virtual Private Network (VPN) technology, its construction methods, and algorithms ensuring security. VPN technology is used to provide encrypted and protected connections over the Internet. The article discusses various VPN protocols such as PPTP, L2TP, OpenVPN, and WireGuard, as well as encryption algorithms including AES, Blowfish, and ChaCha20. The security and efficiency aspects of VPN technologies are analyzed, and modern solutions are recommended.
