nuDefend — built-in protection
Every nuVpn plan includes two layers of always-on protection — dangerous sites are blocked before they load, and known attackers are blocked before they reach you. At no extra cost.
How your protection works
You browse as usual
Open any app or site — nothing to set up, nothing to learn.
Traffic flows through your tunnel
Everything is encrypted and routed through your own secure nuVpn server.
We check every destination
Each request is matched against 78,000+ known dangerous sites, and every connection is checked against 44,000+ known attacker addresses — lists refreshed around the clock.
Threats are blocked instantly
Phishing, malware and attackers never get through — safe sites open normally and fast.
How it works
While you're connected, every request your device makes passes through your own nuVpn server first. Known malware, phishing, ad and tracker domains are blocked before your device ever reaches them — and known attacker addresses are blocked in real time, inbound and outbound. No extra app, nothing to configure.
What we block
- ✓Known phishing and malware domains, updated continuously from trusted threat lists.
- ✓Ads and trackers — for more privacy and faster browsing.
- ✓Eavesdropping on unsecured public Wi-Fi, thanks to the encrypted tunnel.
- ✓Your real IP address and direct inbound access to your device.
- ✓Known attacker addresses — botnets and scanners blocked in both directions, before they ever reach you.
What we can't block
- ✗Brand-new malicious sites not yet listed anywhere (zero-day threats).
- ✗Content inside encrypted HTTPS traffic — we never inspect it, to protect your privacy.
- ✗Malware already on your device, or infected files you open — this is not antivirus software.
- ✗Social engineering, or entering your own password on an unknown site.
