IPVanish Introduces Threat Protection Feature for Fire TV, Android, and iOS


At IPVanish, we are pioneers in providing cutting-edge solutions that empower you to take control of your online privacy, security, and digital experience. That’s why we are so thrilled to introduce our latest feature: ThreatProtection—a rich layer of additional defenses built into the IPVanish VPN app for Android, iOS, and Fire TV (and coming to Windows and Mac in January 2024). IPVanish stands out as the first VPN to offer comprehensive Threat Protection on Fire Stick and Fire TV devices. With Threat Protection, users can block third-party ads, trackers, and malicious content, including malware and phishing sites. 

Key Features of Threat Protection at a Glance:

Ad Blocking

Tired of privacy-intruding ads causing distractions? IPVanish’s Threat Protection steps in to offer the assist, giving you control over if and when you see ads. By filtering out content delivered through ad networks and third-party advertisements from appearing, you can enjoy a streamlined browsing experience that preserves mobile data usage. This advanced technique enhances your privacy, boosts your browsing speeds, and optimizes your device’s performance. Focus on what matters without the distraction of unwanted ads.

Tracker Stopping

In the age of online tracking, maintaining your digital footprint can be a challenge. With Threat Protection, IPVanish takes a bold step forward by preventing these tracking elements from ever loading to avoid ads displaying on your device. Our feature goes beyond the ordinary, blocking nosy third-party cookies and tracking scripts designed to monitor your online activities across the web. This means you can browse the internet with confidence, knowing that unseen entities aren’t watching your movements.

Malicious Site Prevention

The internet is rife with risk, but with IPVanish’s Threat Protection, you can browse with greater peace of mind. Our feature acts as a digital shield, helping to stop known malicious websites dead in their tracks. Whether it’s phishing sites attempting to steal your sensitive information or websites harboring malware, you can trust Threat Protection to help keep you safe. By proactively stopping access to these danger zones, you can protect your device and data from potential harm, allowing you to explore the web worry-free.

How Threat Protection Works:

Threat Protection seamlessly integrates with the IPVanish app on your devices. Once activated, it operates silently in the background, continuously analyzing web traffic to identify and block potential threats before the site visit request resolves. The result is a smoother, safer online experience without compromising your privacy.

At the heart of IPVanish’s Threat Protection lies a sophisticated filtering technique that uses block lists updated in real-time to keep you protected. In leveraging these resources, we’ve elevated your online protection to new heights.

No matter what platform you’re running, activating Threat Protection within the IPVanish app is a breeze. Simply update your app to the latest version, navigate to the Settings screen, scroll down, and enable Threat Protection under the “Advanced protection” section.
