Why eero Plus includes Guardian VPN

Protect your devices the way eero already protects your home.

eero Plus subscribers already trust eero to keep their home network safe. Now, eero's VPN powered by Guardian extends that protection to individual devices — encrypting your internet traffic for the most secure internet experience. Unlike VPNs that only mask your IP address, when you set up Guardian Pro, the built-in firewall monitors all app traffic on your device and stops unauthorized data collection before it ever leaves your device. It's whole-device privacy that starts at home and travels with you.
