Tunnel integrity
IPv4, IPv6, DNS, and VPN interruption behavior.
↗Independent application privacy research
LeakVector studies the network behavior, privacy controls, and identity-linkability risks of desktop applications.
Research focus
We examine that surface under realistic conditions: clean installation, normal use, changed privacy settings, and a protected network path.
IPv4, IPv6, DNS, and VPN interruption behavior.
↗Persistent identifiers that can connect sessions or changing network paths.
↗Background traffic, third parties, and the practical effect of opt-out controls.
↗Whether privacy choices are clear, effective, and retained after restart or update.
↗Evidence-led methodology
Measure what leaves an application—not what it claims to collect.
Separate direct evidence from inference and state the limits of every test.
Turn observations into clear user mitigations and durable vendor fixes.
● Every result records the application version, test environment, evidence level, and known limitations.
Research reports
Each assessment is structured for readers who need both the practical impact and the technical basis behind it.
