VPN for SSH Access
Secure your SSH and remote access by routing traffic through a VPN. Hide your home or office IP and encrypt connections to servers and devices.
- Encrypt SSH and remote access traffic
- Hide your real IP from servers you connect to
- Use with Raspberry Pi, VPS, and servers
- OpenVPN and WireGuard configs for routers and Linux
Why Use a VPN for SSH
SSH is encrypted, but your IP address is visible to the server. If you manage many servers or connect from changing locations, a VPN can hide your IP and add a consistent layer of encryption on the path to the VPN server.
IP Exposure
Every SSH connection reveals your IP to the server. A VPN replaces it with the VPN server IP.
Network Snooping
On hostile networks, the fact that you use SSH (and to which IPs) can be observed. VPN encrypts and obscures that.
Server and Pi Access
When you SSH into a Raspberry Pi or VPS from travel or public WiFi, a VPN protects the path.
How KloudVPN Works with SSH
Route SSH Through VPN
Connect to KloudVPN on your laptop or phone. All traffic, including SSH, goes through the tunnel. The server sees the VPN IP.
Configs for Gateways
Run OpenVPN or WireGuard on a router or Raspberry Pi so all devices behind it (including SSH clients) use the VPN.
No-Logs
We do not log which servers or IPs you connect to.

Kill Switch
