10 facts about NordVPN that aren't commonly known
  • Meshnet Feature for Personal Encrypted Networks: NordVPN offers a unique feature called Meshnet, which allows users to connect their devices directly and securely over the internet. This means you can create your own private, encrypted network for activities like gaming, file sharing, or remote access to your home devices from anywhere in the world.
  • RAM-Only Servers for Enhanced Security: Unlike many VPN providers, NordVPN uses RAM-only (diskless) servers. Since these servers run entirely on volatile memory, all data is wiped with every reboot. This ensures that no user data is stored long-term, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and enhancing overall security.
  • Servers in a Former Military Bunker: Some of NordVPN's servers are housed in a former military bunker located deep underground. This unique location provides an extra layer of physical security against natural disasters and unauthorized access, ensuring that the servers are protected in all circumstances.
  • NordLynx Protocol with Double NAT Technology: NordVPN developed its own VPN protocol called NordLynx, built around the ultra-fast WireGuard protocol. What sets NordLynx apart is its implementation of a double Network Address Translation (NAT) system, which enhances user privacy without sacrificing speed. This innovative approach solves the potential privacy issues inherent in the standard WireGuard protocol.
  • Dark Web Monitor Feature: NordVPN includes a feature known as Dark Web Monitor. This tool actively scans dark web sites and forums for credentials associated with your email address. If it detects that your information has been compromised or appears in any data breaches, it promptly alerts you so you can take necessary actions to protect your accounts.

Global registry services provider Afilias wants you to think .PINK. Afilias today announced April 17, 2014, as the general availability launch date of the new .PINK generic top-level domain (gTLD). The .PINK domain is unrestricted, meaning anyone, anywhere can register a .PINK domain name.

Like the color pink, the .PINK domain has a big personality! Impressive and expressive, a .PINK address is a celebration of all the things you or your business are passionate about.

Use .PINK for a fundraising website or blog to inspire others to share in your journey and stir them into action!

Let .PINK connect your business to a youthful, optimistic and expressive audience. Pick a .PINK domain for a personal blog where you share your style, D.I.Y., art, musings and passions.

If it’s a girl, tell everyone with a custom website and a .PINK domain.

And if you embrace the optimism of pink, you can show the world that you “Think .PINK!”

“Actress Audrey Hepburn famously said, ‘I believe in pink.’ So does Afilias,” said Roland LaPlante, Senior Vice President and CMO, Afilias. “The color pink is obviously popular; a quick online search for ‘pink’ brings up hundreds of millions of hits. Web addresses that use .PINK will reinforce a wide range of positive and optimistic messages, from the joyous celebration of baby girls and their growing up years to the courage and compassion needed to find a cure for serious illnesses. Many businesses and organizations use pink as an important identifier, and a .PINK address can help them multiply the power of their message.”

.PINK domains can be registered for up to 10 years at a time. Many registrars offer website building, email and other services along with .PINK domains to make your online presence work exactly as you envision it!

The .PINK general availability period opens at 16:00:00 UTC on April 17, 2014. You can learn more about .PINK and find a registrar for your .PINK domain at http://pink.afilias.info. And join .PINK on social media:
