What We Like

What We Don't Like

  • Kill switch on Android and Windows only: A kill switch is a crucial VPN feature, but only the Android and Windows versions of Secure VPN have a kill switch.
  • Lackluster Streaming Support: If accessing streaming libraries outside of your geographical region is the main reason that you’re getting a VPN, look elsewhere as Norton Secure VPN was inconsistent in that area during our testing.
  • No P2P or BitTorrent Support: While many VPNs offer peer-to-peer and torrent downloading on specified servers, Norton Secure VPN has a blanket ban on this type of file sharing, which is disappointing.

Bottom Line

Norton is a trustworthy digital security brand that can provide you with decent privacy and protection from online dangers through the Norton Secure VPN. It may not be the most innovative, feature-rich VPN, but it gets the job of encrypting online data and hiding IP addresses done.
