# WireGuard — fast, modern, secure kernel VPN tunnel
#### by [Jason A. Donenfeld](mailto:[email protected]) of [Edge Security](https://www.edgesecurity.com/)

WireGuard is a novel VPN that runs inside the Linux Kernel and utilizes **state-of-the-art cryptography**. It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPsec, while avoiding the massive headache. It intends to be considerably more performant than OpenVPN. WireGuard is designed as a general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and super computers alike, fit for many different circumstances. It runs over UDP.
