About CipherScout

CipherScout exists for one reason: cut through security marketing. Every VPN claims to be the fastest and every password manager claims military-grade encryption. We run them on real devices and real networks, read the audit reports, and tell you what holds up.

How We Evaluate

• Hands-on testing: we sign up, run real tasks, and document what actually happens — not what the marketing page says.
• Transparent criteria: every review scores the same dimensions: features, pricing, ease of use, support, and value over time.
• Kept current: pricing and features change fast. Articles show a last-updated date and are re-checked on a monthly cycle.
