The Tor browser (opens in new tab) is a tool designed to make the user anonymous online, which does not use VPN technology, and therefore does not encrypt data. However, despite best efforts, concerns remain regarding being affected by these sorts of leaks when using a VPN. In other features related to this topic, we’ve recommended some approaches to mitigate the issue of VPN failure, including performing an IP leak test (opens in new tab) and using a VPN kill switch.
The reality is that there can still be data leaks, where unencrypted data gets transmitted, which can include IP leaks alongside DNS leaks too. However, even with the VPN configured correctly and the service performing well, nothing is 100% secure.
