WireGuard ® is an extremely simple yet fast and modern VPN that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography. It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPsec, while avoiding the massive headache.

Users of kernels < 5.6 may also choose wireguard-lts or wireguard-dkms + linux-headers, depending on which kernel is used. OpenSUSE/SLE [tools – v1.0.20250521]

By default, WireGuard tries to be as silent as possible when not being used; it is not a chatty protocol. For the most part, it only transmits data when a peer wishes to send packets.

WireGuard Installer This utility simply downloads, verifies, and executes one of the below MSIs: wireguard-installer.exe WireGuard MSIs wireguard-amd64-0.5.3.msi wireguard-arm64-0.5.3.msi …

If an additional layer of symmetric-key crypto is required (for, say, post-quantum resistance), WireGuard also supports an optional pre-shared key that is mixed into the public key cryptography.

WireGuard is divided into several sub-projects and repositories. The following is a list of official and supported WireGuard projects, along with their status and maintainer.

WireGuard, in contrast, starts from the basis of flawed layering violations and then attempts to rectify the issues arising from this conflation using practical engineering solutions and cryptographic techniques …

While WireGuard has initially been developed for the Linux kernel, for maximum performance, it may run in userspace using a separate implementation. Currently wireguard-go is quite functional, and …

If you would like a direct APK, you may download this file:

WireGuard requires Linux ≥3.10, with the following configuration options, which are likely already configured in your kernel, especially if you're installing via distribution packages.
