Mimic Protocol

How does the Mimic VPN protocol work? Is it available in all AVG Secure apps? 
Nisha SivakumarNisha Sivakumar (Avast)
Hello Jessica,

We're happy to help.
The mimic protocol simply mimics/duplicates the connection to all websites you are visiting during your browsing session, providing fake information about who you are and where you’re coming from, making it impossible for anyone to identify you, track you or monitor you. In more technical terms, it mimics the VPN traffic making it very hard for all types of tech to identify that it is traffic coming through a VPN.

Yes, it is available in AVG Secure VPN.
Let us know if you need further help.
