Compare Proton VPN vs. VirtualBox

Secure your organization from costly data breaches while meeting essential compliance requirements, such as ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA. Our software-based VPN solution is easy to deploy alongside your existing systems, giving you a powerful and adaptable tool for securing your enterprise network. Our VPN Professional plan allows your team to connect securely to your local networks and cloud-based services. And with granular segmented control over who can connect to dedicated VPN servers and Gateways (logical groupings of dedicated servers), you can ensure your staff can access the resources they need (but only what they need). All of our business plans use robust industry-standard AES-256 or ChaCha20 encryption to ensure your data remains secure. You can further strengthen your organization's security with enforced two-factor authentication (2FA) and seamless login through single sign-on (SSO) with SCIM support for automated user provisioning. Our global high-performance (mainly 10 Gbps) server network is one of the largest in the world, and is part of the trusted Proton ecosystem — a suite of fully open source, end-to-end encrypted services built by the creators of Proton Mail and designed specifically to keep your business secure.

VirtualBox is a robust virtualization tool compatible with x86 and AMD64/Intel64 architectures, designed for both corporate and personal use. This software not only boasts an extensive array of features and high performance tailored for business clients but also stands out as the sole professional-grade option that is freely accessible as Open Source Software under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. For those looking for a comprehensive introduction, refer to the section labeled "About VirtualBox." Currently, VirtualBox operates on various host systems, including Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris, while offering compatibility with a wide range of guest operating systems, such as multiple versions of Windows (from NT 4.0 to Windows 10), DOS/Windows 3.x, various Linux distributions, Solaris, OpenSolaris, OS/2, and OpenBSD. The development of VirtualBox is ongoing, with regular updates contributing to an expanding catalog of features and supported guest operating systems. Additionally, it is the result of a collaborative effort within a vibrant community, supported by a committed company, ensuring its continuous improvement and relevance in the virtualization landscape.
