Hello Kel,
We're glad to clarify this for you.
The WireGuard VPN protocol was introduced to the AVG Secure VPN in it's last update (released on July 22, 2022).
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) protects the data you upload and download by functioning as a private tunnel through the internet. It effectively anonymizes/masks your internet activity (WiFi network) and secures your connection. While your AVG Secure VPN (with WireGuard protocol) is enabled, your internet network will be masked as "AVG VPN WireGuard".
We'd like to assure you that your online security will not be compromised because of this. For further information about AVG Secure VPN, please refer to this article.

hello team, within the past 2 weeks a new AVG VPN adapter called 'AVG VPN WireGuard' has appeared in my list of network adapters. Also, when i connect through VPN this adapter shows in my system tray. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling all AVG products yet it continues to show as the default VPN adapter being used. Is this a new VPN protocol feature that AVG has introduced and do i need to be concerned? Is there any additional config i need to implement so there are no data leaks? BIG thanks as always team
