ExpressVPN’s Windows app gets the all-clear after an independent security audit from F-Secure.
ExpressVPN has announced that its VPN app for Windows has been given a clean bill of health following an independent security audit conducted last year. From November to December of last year, the cybersecurity firm F-Secure conducted a penetration test of the company’s Windows client in an attempt to identify any potential security weaknesses within the app. More specifically, ExpressVPN wanted to know if an attacker could use its Windows app to execute code remotely while also ensuring that no user information was disclosed or IP addresses were leaked. In its security assessment of version 10 of ExpressVPN’s Windows app, F-Secure reported that none of the targeted vulnerabilities were found. According to the report, it was not possible to gain information about the company’s clients or out of network traffic from its app.
