Few VPNs have been plastered across the internet quite like NordVPN. Whether you've seen the company sponsoring your favourite YouTuber, podcast or social media creator, chances are you've already come across it. Having tested it for years, I can tell you the product really is good enough to back up all of that marketing spend – and it keeps on getting better.
While NordVPN is still one of the best VPNs I’ve used, it's no longer just a VPN. In May 2026, the company completely overhauled its entire service, turning it into a fully fledged cybersecurity suite to take on the likes of Bitdefender and Norton. As well as a VPN, it boasts malware protection, phishing and scam detection, dark web monitoring, a password manager and encrypted cloud storage.
