Donenfeld](mailto:Jason@zx2c4.com) of [Edge Security](https://www.edgesecurity.com/) WireGuard is a novel VPN that runs inside the Linux Kernel and utilizes **state-of-the-art cryptography**. It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPSec, while avoiding the massive headache. It intends to be considerably more performant than OpenVPN. WireGuard is designed as a general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and super computers alike, fit for many different circumstances. It runs over UDP. **More information may be found at [WireGuard.com](https://www.wireguard.com/).** ## License This project is released under the [GPLv2](COPYING).
