Only SlickVPN offers HYDRA. By routing your connection through an extra hop across our internal network, HYDRA masks your traffic from anyone, anywhere — the most secure connection we know how to build.
A standard VPN encrypts your traffic and sends it to a single gateway. That is enough to stop your ISP and the coffee-shop network from watching you — but the exit server still knows where your traffic came from. HYDRA closes that gap.
How the extra hop works
With HYDRA enabled, your encrypted traffic enters our network at one gateway and leaves from another, travelling over one or more internal hops that we control end to end. Nobody watching the entrance can see the exit, and nobody watching the exit can see you.
The result is a connection that completely masks your activity from observation, throttling and correlation — without you configuring anything. Turn it on in the SlickVPN client and connect.
Who needs it
If you are a journalist, a traveller on hostile networks, or simply someone who believes privacy is freedom, HYDRA is the strongest protection SlickVPN offers. It is included with every account at no extra cost.
