How to chain VPN servers

#1 Post by labbe5 »

Double VPN, also known as a process of chaining VPN servers, is a technology solution that allows hiding your online activity behind several servers via a VPN tunnel. As a matter of fact, the working principle is rather simple: you connect to the first VPN server, which in turn redirects all the traffic to another server, from which the online traffic reaches the final destination.

This way, the connection goes through two separate servers in different locations: the external IP address is changed and the traffic is encrypted once, and then it gets re-encrypted in the second server in another location.

In general, double encryption may not be necessary if you only want to unblock services that are inaccessible in your location, stream video content or access specific media platforms.

However, the advanced VPN encryption feature can be extremely useful and even necessary when a high level of online security and privacy is required. That is especially relevant to all the journalists, political activists and bloggers working and living in countries with authoritarian governments along with a high level of Internet censorship and surveillance.

DoubleVPN and NordVPN provide this feature (DoubleVPN for a hefty monthly price):

For 36$/month : doubling your protection :
The first server receives request from your computer and redirects it to the second server, which sends it on its behalf into the Internet.

For 42$/month : tripling your protection.
The first server receives request from your computer and redirects it to the second, the second redirects to the third, which sends it into the Internet.

Despite the many advantages and benefits double encryption provides in the context of Internet security and privacy, there are only a few service providers that support the Double VPN technology. Meanwhile, NordVPN offers it for all our clients at no extra charge.
