And not just in North America and Europe, either: there's also Brazil, India, Israel, Japan, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and more. The company doesn't seem keen to publicize how many servers it has, but they're reasonably well distributed over 50+ locations and 35 countries. You can only use it through the official apps. As Speedify uses a proprietary protocol, though, there's no way to manually set it up on routers, games consoles or other platforms. Speedify provides apps for Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android, keeping setup relatively easy. See the Speedify support site for more, or check out Private Internet Access' more complete GGCM vs CBC explanation. AES-GCM is more secure than the AES-CBC used by many VPNs, and a 128-bit key gives you plenty of protection. Yes, it's 'only' AES-128, but that doesn't mean your coffee shop browsing is suddenly at risk.
#SPEEDIFY FOR WINDOWS FULL#
(If you're looking for the full technical detail, Speedify is based on DTLS 1.2 using TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, if hardware-supported, or TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 for older devices.) Speedify has its own custom protocol, for instance (no OpenVPN or WireGuard support here), using the efficient ChaCha cipher to get fast results on even the oldest of devices, or AES128-GCM on devices where there's hardware support.

You don't need multiple connections to use the service, it works just fine with one – although obviously in this case, you won't get the same channel bonding advantages.
