Universal Personal VPN Server — SSD VDS Plus Streisand

Our high-speed SSD VDS is ideal for setting up private VPN servers. We provide virtual servers with unlimited traffic and excellent connectivity, available in seven locations across Europe, the USA, and Asia. We simplify VPN setup by offering pre-configured SSD VDS with personal VPN servers installed, featuring options like OpenVPN-AS or IPSec-VPN. Our latest addition, StreisandVPN, automates the installation process for an ultimate VPN solution.

Overview of Streisand Project

Streisand is a collection of specially configured server applications running on a standard Ubuntu 16 LTS virtual server. Here’s what you get:

• Cisco AnyConnect/OpenConnect: Lightweight yet effective for most OS platforms. Notably, it’s often unblocked by firewalls and serves corporate needs.
• OpenVPN: A widely recognized solution with five pre-configured keys allowing cyclic port switching (UDP/8757, TCP/636, TCP/443), making it suitable for constant use.
• OpenVPN+stunnel: For added security; this setup is robust against blocking and resembles regular SSL data streams.
• Shadowsocks: An encrypted Socks5 version featuring UDP support, originally for bypassing restrictions in China.
• SSH Tunnel: A secure method utilizing the SSH protocol, enabling encrypted connections without extensive setups.
• Private TOR Exit Node: When other options fail, use Streisand as a TOR network exit node for added anonymity, though speed may be compromised.

Each method can be utilized independently or together, enhancing flexibility. For example, connect your iPhone with OpenVPN and your work computer with Cisco AnyConnect.
