VPN Monitor

VPN Monitor provides objective measurements of VPN health by continuously evaluating uptime, latency, and packet loss across configured endpoints. It is intended for security teams, network engineers, MSPs, and privacy-focused users who rely on VPNs for remote access and data protection. The tool emphasizes auditable, time-stamped results to support incident investigations and compliance audits, rather than subjective impressions of performance.

Conceptually, the system runs automated tests that simulate user traffic over each endpoint, captures response times, and detects anomalies. It performs DNS and IP leak checks to verify that traffic exits through the VPN, and it verifies kill switch behavior to ensure data does not leak when the VPN drops. Results are compiled into per-endpoint health profiles and a consolidated view.

Key features include multi-endpoint support, protocol awareness (OpenVPN, WireGuard, IKEv2), DNS/IP leak verification, and kill switch checks. Optional capabilities cover alerting, historical dashboards, data export in standard formats, and seamless integration with existing monitoring pipelines. Practical use cases include validating a new VPN rollout, monitoring remote sites, and sustaining SLA-level visibility for privacy-sensitive services.

The tool's unique value lies in merging performance metrics with privacy verifications in a single workflow. By separating measurement, calculation, and interpretation, it enables precise thresholds, reproducible results, and faster root-cause analysis. This reduces MTTR for VPN issues, improves governance over VPN configurations, and supports audits that require demonstrable evidence of secure, reliable connectivity.
