European Union Introduces New Security Rules for VPNs

The European Union is introducing new security rules for virtual private networks (VPNs). The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has defined security requirements for VPNs under the Cyber Resilience Act. Major companies such as NordVPN and Surfshark have contributed to the development of these security standards.

The new rules require all VPNs sold in Europe to comply with verifiable standards for encryption, authentication, and vulnerability management. This provides a safer environment for users to protect their digital footprint.

The European Union is introducing an official security standard for VPN services with these new security standards, allowing users to connect to the internet more securely.
