The security suite is secure enough, with AES-256 encryption, a kill switch, and no leaks. It’s subject to EU data retention laws, too, and has a troubled company history. We were disappointed by how few streaming services it accesses (BBC iPlayer and Amazon Prime Video only) and its server network is quite small compared to the competition.Īvast collects more logging data than we find acceptable, so we can’t enthusiastically recommend it for risk-free torrenting, either, despite the P2P servers. It’s consumer-friendly and easy to use, but we’ve seen much better.Īlthough Avast SecureLine provides very fast connection speeds on its proprietary Avast Mimic protocol, it doesn’t excel in enough of our key testing areas. Avast SecureLine is a mid-range VPN from cybersecurity giant Avast RSO.
