Summary

Lithuanian Nord Security consumer VPN: NordLynx (WireGuard-based), large RAM-only network, Meshnet, Threat Protection, and audited no-logs claims under a Panama data controller.

Norwegian (OctoSEC AS) WireGuard/OpenVPN service focused on DDoS-protected exits, low-latency gaming use, and optional private dedicated servers—not an audited enterprise fleet VPN.
