Previously, Proton VPN underwent an independent audit by SEC Consult in January 2020. SEC Consult found some medium and low risk vulnerabilities in Proton VPN's Windows, Android, and iOS applications, all of which were "properly fixed" by Proton VPN before the reports were published. None of the issues identified would have provided an attacker remote access to your device or traffic. You can view individual reports for each platform in their dedicated [blog post](https://web.archive.org/web/20250307041036/https://protonvpn.com/blog/open-source) on the audit.
