Independent auditors just dissected NordVPN’s entire digital fortress—and guess what? No catastrophic cracks. Just a few scratches.
Leading cybersecurity firm Cure53 spent 55 days poking, prodding, and stress-testing every inch of NordVPN’s apps (Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android), browser extensions (Chrome, Edge, Firefox), and even its advanced features like Threat Protection Pro and Meshnet. The verdict? 31 findings—22 security vulnerabilities (some high-risk) and nine minor weaknesses. But here’s the kicker: zero critical flaws.
“A high number of issues? Expected. A broken foundation? Not even close.” That’s the gist of Cure53’s final report. Sure, they flagged concerns, but they also praised NordVPN’s use of rock-solid libraries like OpenSSL and NGHTTP2. And Nord? They didn’t just nod along—they patched most issues before the ink dried.
Why does this matter? Because NordVPN isn’t just playing defense; they’re inviting scrutiny. Again. This audit follows their fifth no-logs verification by Deloitte earlier this year. Transparency isn’t a buzzword here—it’s a habit.
“Security isn’t a checkbox; it’s a relentless chase,” says NordVPN CTO Marijus Briedis. And he’s right. In a world where VPNs whisper “trust me”, NordVPN shoves its blueprints on the table.
So, is it perfect? No. But with every audit, every fix, NordVPN isn’t just claiming to be secure—they’re proving it.
