Thanks for watching this explanation of the Wireguard VPN protocol! If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. Also, if you're looking for a VPN that utilizes the Wireguard protocol, here's what I recommend: ✅ Mullvad VPN: www.allthingssecured.com/try/mullvad-wg ✅ NordVPN: www.allthingssecured.com/try/nordvpn-wg ✅ VyperVPN: www.allthingssecured.com/try/vyprvpn-wg
I very much appreciate the layman's explanation, meet people where they are approach. I get it now. I hope you do a series of IT videos for beginners at some point. I would definitely watch them, even if they're 1,000 clips!
This is true, I agree. However, clean code that hasn't been bloated by decades of enterprise use often does lead to a more optimized experience. In the case of WireGuard, the proof is whether or not it translates to a faster, more stable and secure user experience. For me and many others over the past year, the answer is a clear "YES" :)
Just tried Wireguard and it was annoying and buggy. I liked it but didn't feel any speed difference (actually it felt a bit slower in some cases and speed was not reliable ) , and it is not production ready at all and most important thing is it's not reliable. As said above Less lines of code is not important if the software is not working properly. (I'm a developer as well)
As a developer - less code is more secure. Pure statistics. With more locs more bugs will occur. but yes, it has nothing to do with being faster, but I did not understand this from his talkin'
the point that it can seamlessly transition between wifi and cellular is one thing which really got me from your talk here! I constantly got kicked out with my phone with openvpn hence I could never be sure if all data actually goes through the vpn since you can not configure an iphone to use an 'untrusted' network. sadly it is not natively supported on iOS :/
@@AllThingsSecured this wouldn't change the core functionality in ios would ? ;) no but honestly id rather run my own box. Trusting one over the other doesnt make it better
It works well for me! But be aware that WG tends to use a LOT more battery when used on an iPhone for example as compared to IPSec with AES-256-GCM and SHA256 encryption and hashing (which are typically hardware accelerated)
Watching 3years later - not sure if that's because I am in South Africa or I am just usually slow?! Your videos always come in handy when I want to change things up on my home network.
Two questions; First is the reduction in lines of code also caused by relying on third party libraries, essentially outsourcing the code, making it more of a marketing tool? Second, regarding the cryptokey routing; doesn't that cause issues when using IP range overlaps from one peer to the next?
essentially yeah, its also not even really an appealing claim to anyone who does programming, less lines of code does not necessarily mean better or even faster, infact intentionally limiting your codebase to a low amount of code can be extremely limiting on potential features such as obfuscation.
I can see how legacy code for further compatibility over the years may slow down the connection time of OpenVPN, however 2 seconds vs 5 seconds to connect isn't a big deal as long as the connection is stable. From what I've read, Wireguard isn't that stable yet, admittedly it's young. If it can seamlessly reconnect while transferring from WiFi to 4G etc, then that's excellent. Look forward to conducting some tests on this over the coming months before potentially bringing it into production.
Please don't measure software quality by amount of lines of code. One line of program code could call 40,000 lines of library code underneath. It is an argument that makes programmers instantly turn away from you as a source of expertise
its a bit old, but i still have questions. 1 - Can i use Wireguard to connect multiple computers with a specific port without paid VPNs 2 - What are the limits of Wireguard? (Computer to Computer response time and limits about download/upload) 3 - Can Wireguard work without VPNs in a Homemade Server? 4 - I don't know, its bad luck to make only 3 questions, so, do you like potatoes?
This is more a sales/marketing story, with no results nor any testing. That's a missed chance. The question should be, if you are responsible for data security in a company, would you rely on it? When PPPT encryption was designed it was considered safe too, we know these days better. In other words, the maturity of code is the lead. Openvpn has proven itself there where as wireguard didn't yet. Simpler is better without further explanation is useless and not always true either.....
Not meant to be sales-y, but also not meant to be a technical review. This is an explanation of what WireGuard is for those who have maybe heard about it but don't understand how it's any different than other protocols. Simpler is not always better, I agree, but like OpenVPN, WireGuard is open source, so if you have any specific problems with the code, I'd be happy to hear it. Talking about "maturity of code" isn't much of an argument here. Thanks, Gerard!

Question: Would you know how to add Wireguard into built-in Windows 11 "VPN Manager"? It would be great to get advantages of Wireguard without installing separate VPN Client software. Thanks.
Hello, thanks for the great video. I am doing my dissertation for my MSc on a critical comparrison of OpenVPN vs Wireguard. I was wondering if you point to a narrow research area that would be of interest that may not have been looked at before?
I don't really understand what data is being shared. If I gave my tunnel's public key and I'm accessing my company's pc with remotedesktop, can they only see what's done in the remote desktop, or can they see all activity on the computer, or even wifi?
Is the wireguard protocol not easier to break because it's more simple? I read this in an article: WireGuard requires much less code than OpenVPN - around 4,000 lines compared to 70,000 (at least). This smaller footprint makes it much easier for security researchers to audit and verify WireGuard’s code than OpenVPN’s. I was told that to audit a vpn connection that it can cost a million years to break it and get the data because it is so strong secured that it is impossible to break.

The current problem with wireguard is that it's not ready for corporate networks. Corporate networks should be able to push networks from the server, as opposed to having them on client config files. What a management nightmare. Once things get developed, vetted, and audited, only then will corporate enterprises adopt.
You're probably right, David. But to be fair, these corporate problems are exactly why protocols like PPTP and OpenVPN are so bloated with code. My hope is that they can develop this enterprise version separately from the current version so that we as individuals don't have to pay the price for corporate needs.

Wireguard is a VPN protocol that encrypts your data while SmartDNS is a technology that uses DNS servers to spoof your location (but doesn't encrypt your data).
@@AllThingsSecured that means SmartDNS will give nearly the same speed as without using anything compared to VPN, cause while using vpn my internet is too slow, currently 40mpbs but after using vpn it gives as slow as 2mbps speed
@@creative-commons-videos Yes, SmartDNS has the benefit of speed.
Why does this wireguard messes my internet connection?
As long as this wireguard running i dont have internet connection.
Then something hasn’t been set up correctly. Are you running your own Wireguard VPN or a commercial VPN with a Wireguard protocol option?
@@AllThingsSecured i install this wireguard to know how to host a website. I dont know why it becomes my vpn.
But i uninstall it already.
LINUX again win win Bonus
I assume you're a Linux user, then ;)
The current problem with wireguard is that it's not ready for corporate networks. Corporate networks should be able to push networks from the server, as opposed to having them on client config files. What a management nightmare. Once things get developed, vetted, and audited, only then will corporate enterprises adopt.
You're probably right, David. But to be fair, these corporate problems are exactly why protocols like PPTP and OpenVPN are so bloated with code. My hope is that they can develop this enterprise version separately from the current version so that we as individuals don't have to pay the price for corporate needs.
using LOC as a measurement of safety is incredibly stupid, do better guys
Maybe a little less coffee :]
Me have less coffee? Yea...that ain't gonna happen ;)
I got the 1k like
Ha! Thanks.
Less lines of code also means that it's more easily exploitable.
I'm afraid this is incorrect
... this is misleading.
How so?
