Evaluating ZeroTier Virtual Private Network against competing solutions

In this thesis, we addressed emerging free to use VPN solutions. We have focused on ZeroTier VPN solution, which works fundamentally different from conventional VPN. Clients of ZeroTier network authenticate on a server, and then form a peer-to-peer network. Results of testing have shown that the most mature solution for industry is OpenVPN. WireGuard is a very efficient protocol with great potential.
