Is WireGuard the Future of VPN Protocols? 2020 Safety Update
Updated on 31st December 2019
WireGuard is a new open-source VPN protocol that aims to simplify the process of encrypting data. It promises to be faster and leaner than OpenVPN and IKEv2, widely viewed as the two best protocols available today.
WireGuard has already delivered positive results during testing, with significantly lower ping times (a measure of overall network speed) and more stable connections than OpenVPN.
In fact, WireGuard fans are boldly predicting that this “protocol of the future” will surpass every existing VPN tunneling option. However, it’s still in the early stages of development, with a number of kinks that need to be worked out before it can be widely used.
Creator Jason Donenfeld has an impressive background in online security. While he’s the first to admit that a stable version of WireGuard doesn’t exist yet, the arrival of a potentially game-changing new protocol is a very big deal in the world of VPNs.
Read on for an in-depth look at the pros and cons of WireGuard, and the current status of its development and implementation.

In addition to outpacing both OpenVPN and the very fast IPSec protocol during speed testing, WireGuard was built with ease of use in mind. Even manual network configuration will be quite simple when the protocol is deployed on a large scale.
One of the reasons for the new protocol’s speed and simplicity is a streamlined approach to encryption.

WireGuard is also far less bloated than OpenVPN, with only 4,000 lines of code. This compact coding ensures regular, thorough auditing and improvement – which means fewer vulnerabilities than other protocols have.
Potential Risks of Using WireGuard Now
Despite its many positives, you should think carefully before using WireGuard right away. After all, even its primary developer still classifies it as experimental.
That means your experience with WireGuard might not match those impressive speed test results due to potential stability issues. And there are a number of security concerns at the present time.

Donenfeld himself is quick to caution VPN users against relying on the new protocol, recognizing that there’s plenty of work yet to be done before a stable version will be ready for release.
There’s also a lack of commercial support for WireGuard at present. So unless you’re confident going it alone with open-source software and no tech help safety net, we’d advise waiting a while longer before trying it out.

Current WireGuard Shortcomings:
- Apps are buggy.
- Developers advise that the code and protocol are experimental.
- There is a lack of support for platforms other than Linux.
- No stable version has been released that would allow Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) tracking of any potential security risks.
- Very few commercial vendors currently use it due to these and other concerns.
