WHAT IS OPENVPN CONNECT?
The OpenVPN Connect app does NOT independently provide a VPN service. It is a client application that establishes and transports data over an encrypted secure tunnel via the internet, using the OpenVPN protocol, to a VPN server.
WHICH VPN SERVICES CAN BE USED WITH OPENVPN CONNECT?
OpenVPN Connect is the only VPN client created, developed, and maintained by OpenVPN Inc. Our customers use it with our business solutions, listed below, for secure remote access, enforcing zero trust network access (ZTNA), protecting access to SaaS apps, securing IoT communications, and in many other scenarios.
⇨ CloudConnexa: This cloud-delivered service integrates virtual networking with essential secure access service edge (SASE) capabilities such as firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS), intrusion detection and prevention system (IDS/IPS), DNS-based content filtering, and zero-trust network access (ZTNA). Using CloudConnexa, businesses can quickly deploy and manage a secure overlay network that connects all of their applications, private networks, workforce, and IoT/IIoT devices without owning and operating a multitude of complex, hard-to-scale security and data networking gear. CloudConnexa can be accessed from more than 30 worldwide locations and uses patent-pending technologies to create a full-mesh network topology for improved performance and routing to private applications—hosted on multiple connected networks—simply by using the application name (for example, app.mycompany.com).
⇨ Access Server: This self-hosted VPN solution for remote access and site-to-site networking provides granular access control and supports SAML, RADIUS, LDAP, and PAM for user authentication. It can be deployed as a cluster to provide active/active redundancy and for operating at high scale.
OpenVPN Connect can also be used to connect to any server or service compatible with OpenVPN protocol or running the open source Community edition.
HOW TO USE OPENVPN CONNECT?
OpenVPN Connect receives configuration information for the VPN server using a “connection profile” file. It can be imported into the app using a file with a .ovpn file extension or a website URL. The file or website URL and user credentials are provided by the VPN service administrator.

Why Permissions Matter
If not managed properly, dangerous permissions can permit malicious access to sensitive data, and device features.
Network Connections Observations
DETECTEDNetwork analysis has detected communication with external servers and data transfer patterns.
Observed During Analysis
Connected Hostname:
- google.com
Server Locations:
- Mountain View, California, US
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why Network Connections Matter
Uncontrolled communication with external servers by an employee-used app could expose sensitive business data to unauthorized third parties. This unauthorized access can lead to data breaches, regulatory non-compliance, and damage to your business's reputation and financial standing.
Privacy Declarations Observations
NOT DETECTEDThis test did not detect a discrepancy, indicating all required declarations are disclosed.
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why Privacy Declarations Matter
Declarations matter because they provide transparency on how apps collect and use sensitive data. iOS requires Privacy Manifest declarations, while Android requires Data Safety disclosures and manifest permissions.
Sensitive Data Collection and Sharing Observations
NONE DETECTEDNone detected. Further analysis recommended.
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why Data Collection and Sharing Matters
If not managed properly private data can expose enterprises, customers, employees and partners to breach and compliance violations.
AI Observations
NONE DETECTEDNone detected. Further analysis recommended.
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why AI Matters
AI features can process sensitive data in unexpected ways, potentially exposing proprietary information or creating liability.
