Shadowsock VPN for Windows

Shadowsocks VPN — Quick overview

Shadowsocks is a lightweight VPN client for Android that lets you browse the web privately and anonymously. It’s simple to install, straightforward to use, and easy to share with friends or family. The app operates without requiring elevated system permissions, routing all internet traffic through the Shadowsocks tunnel.

Security and technical highlights

• AES-256 symmetric encryption for data protection
• Open-source core engine (Shadowsocks) that encrypts client-server communication
• Built as an open-core project
• IPv6 support plus DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) for safer name resolution
• Zero-configuration setup for immediate use
• Flexible networking options to tailor connections

Note: the connection uses strong key sizes — the package advertises a 4096-bit key length for cryptographic operations.
