NEW YORK -- (Business Wire)

IPVanish, a leading provider of consumer privacy and security solutions, today announced the launch of Threat Protection Pro, a powerful new feature for Windows and macOS that is designed to provide always-on digital security.

Threat Protection Pro is powered by award-winning cybersecurity technology from VIPRE®, bringing over 25 years of threat intelligence and security expertise into the IPVanish app to deliver advanced, real-time protection against malicious websites, downloads, ads, and trackers, regardless of whether the VPN connection is active.

This launch marks the latest advancement in IPVanish's evolution as a comprehensive digital security solution for consumers. In addition to its no-log VPN and new Threat Protection Pro services, IPVanish delivers ransomware defense through its Livedrive® cloud backup and the IPVanish Secure Browser™—a disposable, sandboxed browsing environment designed to isolate online threats. Combined into a single subscription plan, these tools provide a layered approach to safeguarding users at every stage of their digital experience.

"Consumers shouldn't have to piece together multiple tools to stay safe online," said Subbu Sthanu, General Manager of Consumer Security offerings at Ziff Davis. "Our goal is to provide complete digital life protection, and Threat Protection Pro is a key step in that evolution. By unifying security across the browser, cloud, network, and system—core layers of modern defense—into one cohesive experience, we're transforming IPVanish into a comprehensive platform that delivers advanced protection seamlessly while giving users greater visibility and control."

Multi-Layered, Always-On Threat Defense

With Threat Protection Pro, IPVanish introduces a multi-layered defense system designed to stop potential hazards before they reach the user. Key capabilities include:

  • Real-time threat detection: Analyzes specific pages and files to block phishing, scams, and malicious content, even if they are over https
  • Malicious download protection: Automatically scans files and quarantines threats before they can cause harm
  • Ad, tracker, and malicious website blocking: Delivering a cleaner and safer web browsing experience
  • Network threat monitoring (Windows only): To detect and block suspicious activity across all incoming network traffic—not just web-based—before attacks occur
  • Always-on protection: Functioning continuously, even when the VPN is disconnected

Going beyond standard domain-level filtering, Threat Protection Pro analyzes pages and files individually, helping stop attacks that may be hidden within otherwise trusted sites.

Combined with IPVanish’s encrypted VPN, sandboxed browsing environment, and cloud-based backup, these capabilities provide a unified approach to digital security—helping prevent attacks, monitor system activity, secure network traffic, and enable recovery when needed.

Powered by Award-Winning Enterprise Technology

IPVanish is uniquely positioned amongst VPN providers to deliver mature, enterprise-grade capabilities by leveraging VIPRE—its own in-house cybersecurity technology.

Built on VIPRE’s antivirus engine, Threat Protection Pro draws on more than 25 years of cybersecurity expertise and protects over one million devices worldwide. The technology earned AV-Comparatives’ highest Advanced+ rating in the November 2025 Real-World Protection Test and has consistently ranked in the leaders quadrant for its Endpoint Prevention and Response (EPR) test, alongside recognition from the Globee® IT World Awards and Global Infosec Awards.

Threat Protection Pro joins IPVanish’s growing suite of security solutions—including its free Link Checker web tool, Link and QR Code Checker tools for mobile, and IPVanish Secure Browser™—as part of a broader strategy to deliver layered, user-friendly protection across every digital touchpoint.

Available Now for Windows and Mac

Threat Protection Pro is now available in the IPVanish app for Windows and macOS and is included with select IPVanish plans.
