IPVanish has launched a new security feature called Threat Protection Pro in beta for its Windows desktop app. The company says this tool is designed to offer protection beyond VPN privacy by helping users stay safe while browsing, downloading files, and using the internet in general.
This new feature adds another layer of security that works even when the VPN is not turned on.
It is a built-in security panel inside the IPVanish app. It helps protect users from:
Unlike standard VPN protection, this feature remains active even when the VPN connection is turned off, giving users ongoing protection throughout the day.
The feature is powered by security technology from VIPRE, which is used by businesses and organizations worldwide.
Threat Protection Pro is available to users on the IPVanish Advanced plan. Currently, it is only offered through beta versions of the IPVanish Windows app.
Users who want early access can enable beta updates inside their IPVanish Windows application. This allows them to test new features before they are officially released.
Since Threat Protection Pro is still in beta, IPVanish says the feature will continue to improve based on user feedback before its full launch. The company stated that early testers will help shape how the final version works and ensure it meets user expectations.
