Mullvad emphasizes VPN security with server upgrades
15 August 2016 (Gothenburg, Sweden) – Mullvad has completed a major enhancement of its server infrastructure. "We have doubled our capacity, and our servers in Sweden and Amsterdam are running at even higher levels of security. This is just the first step in a series of major investments we're doing to improve our VPN service,” says CEO Jan Jonsson.
Mullvad, which specializes in online privacy, now owns and has physical control over servers at three locations, two in Sweden and one in Amsterdam. Internet access is delivered by Tier 1 and Tier 2 Internet providers.
Mullvad worked on the upgrade in close cooperation with data center specialist 31173 Services. "We are happy to grow our business together with Mullvad. Providing servers for a company that focuses on security and insists on high performance is our specialty," says Nemo Ekström, CEO of 31173 Services AB.
Mullvad also rents physical dedicated servers, which are not shared with other clients, and bandwidth from carefully selected providers in Canada, Germany, Singapore, and the United States.
