However, Stealth is based on the TLS protocol, making it much harder for web censors and scanners to detect. According to Proton, most protocols are based on the UDP, which makes it easier for authoritarian regimes to detect and block them. The new Stealth protocol makes VPN traffic look like regular traffic. Stealth is the latest feature the company will add to the service, which already boasts other remarkable features like Secure Core VPN and VPN Accelerator. Proton VPN is on a mission to make its VPN more secure, private, and faster. Stealth is currently being rolled out on Proton VPN’s iOS, macOS, and Android apps. “You’ll be able to bypass advanced VPN blocks, access censored sites, and communicate with people on social media, even if your government is trying to restrict access,” Proton said in a press release.

Stealth allows users to access the web freely and stay undetectable to government scanners.

The new protocol, which will be available for both free and premium users of Proton VPN, is more “censorship-resistant” than many other obfuscation tools available today, the company explained. Proton VPN on Tuesday unveiled a new obfuscation protocol, “Stealth,” designed to allow users to escape internet censorship and attempts to block VPN traffic.
