Global VPN service provider NordVPN has announced a free version meaning everybody, everywhere can enjoy encrypted, secure communications without worrying about cost.

NordVPN is going through one of its biggest transformations with a recent product update, that includes a new and easy file-sharing functionality through Meshnet as well as an open source Linux application. It also makes Meshnet free of charge for anyone.

Now, even without a NordVPN subscription, users can benefit from all the advantages NordVPNs Meshnet offers them. Meshnet allows users to create a peer-to-peer VPN tunnel between devices with NordVPN installed.

"We are continuously expanding the capabilities of NordVPN. This release marks a significant change in openness by both making part of the service free as well as open-sourcing a substantial part of our client software, said NordVPN product strategist Vykintas Maknickas.

From now on, users no longer need a NordVPN subscription to enjoy all the advantages Meshnet offers. Meshnet creates a peer-to-peer VPN tunnel between desktops and mobile devices. This means users can work around limitations by routing their internet traffic through any remote device in the world, as long as it has NordVPN installed. Any Windows, Mac, or Linux device can turn into their personal VPN server. This means that people can enjoy all the benefits they have at home or provided by other users despite their current location.

In addition, using Meshnet, people can now instantly share files from one device to another. Take a screenshot on your mobile device. Pick the NordVPN app in sharing options and choose the device you want to send your screenshot to. It's that easy. Share photo or video files of unlimited size without losing quality. Users can share any files they want without limitation. Any file sent this way goes through an end-to-end encrypted peer-to-peer VPN tunnel, making it the most secure option to share. Users can send or receive files from their own devices as well as from their family members, friends, or colleagues anyone who has NordVPN installed. The new feature requires two-way consent, so users never have to put their privacy at risk.

Also, NordVPN has released three of its products under an open-source license, which includes the entire NordVPN Linux application, Libtelio a networking library used across NordVPN apps on all operating systems, and Libdrop a library that's used to share files over Meshnet. This means that the source code of these products is now publicly available, allowing developers to review, audit, and contribute to the code. By making these products open source, NordVPN is demonstrating its commitment to transparency, community collaboration, and trust in its products.

NordVPN has updatedits Meshnet documentation page to help you understand and make use of the most popular use cases of this feature. Some examples include:

With Meshnet, users can conveniently bypass internet limitations by routing their internet traffic through any remote device in the world that NordVPN can be installed on. Any Windows, Mac, or Linux device can be used as their personal VPN server. This means that people can enjoy all the benefits they have at home or provided by other users despite their current location.

Meshnet is available on all platforms, including Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux as well as Android TV. Users can link up to 10 personal and 50 external devices to their own network.

Reducing WAN latency is one of the biggest issues with hybrid cloud performance. Taking advantage of compression and data deduplication can reduce your network latency.

Research firm, Markets and Markets, predicted that the hybrid cloud market size is expected to grow from US$38.27 billion in 2017 to US$97.64 billion by 2023.

Colocation facilities provide many of the benefits of having your servers in the cloud while still maintaining physical control of your systems.

Cloud adjacency provided by colocation facilities can enable you to leverage their low latency high bandwidth connections to the cloud as well as providing a solid connection back to your on-premises corporate network.
