[WireGuard®](https://www.wireguard.com/) is a straight-forward, fast and modern VPN that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography.

WireGuard is designed as a general-purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and super computers alike, fit for many circumstances. Initially released for the Linux kernel, it is now cross-platform (Windows, macOS, BSD, iOS, Android) and widely deployable.
