Despite these strong security and privacy mechanisms, torrenting isn’t supported as Browsec currently operates via browser extensions and mobile apps only. To protect your online privacy, Browsec deploys IPSec/IKEv2 connection protocol with AES-256 encryption on mobile and HTTP Proxy over TLS with AES-256 encryption when using its browser extensions. The provider is headquartered in Russia and offers access to 1,000+ servers in 40+ countries, including Australia, Iceland, India and many others. Since this is one of the reasons why many VPN users seek out a service such as this one, this gives Browsec additional points in our book.

StreamingĮven though this isn’t explicitly stated on the website, our experience has shown that Browsec VPN can unblock geographically restricted content on Netflix (UK and US) and BBC iPlayer. If, however, you don’t mind paying more, then we would recommend either NordVPN or ExpressVPN, both of which are very capable platforms with gorgeous desktop apps, manual configuration options for non-mainstream platforms, torrenting support, 30-day money-back guarantees and more. There’s also Windscribe, which has a free plan that includes 10GB of VPN traffic per month with no restrictions on speeds. The closest competitor to Browsec VPN in terms of pricing is Surfshark, but the latter also offers user-friendly clients for all major platforms.
