Protocol
Providers that ship some form of obfuscated transport. This is a category rather than a named protocol — it says traffic is disguised, not how.
An obfuscated transport is any tunnel dressed to look like something else — plain TLS, a web request, random noise — so that a network trying to block VPN traffic does not recognise it. It is a category rather than a protocol: the term says that traffic is disguised, not how.
On security obfuscation adds nothing to the tunnel inside it and is only as strong as the protocol it wraps. Its purpose is reachability under censorship, not privacy from the provider. Because the wrapper is almost always the provider’s own and closed, it also inherits the same caveat as a proprietary protocol: nobody outside the company has read it.
Obfuscated
More protocols
Four of the twelve terms — obfuscated, proprietary, vendor_open, wireguard_derived — are categories rather than protocol names: each says a protocol was disguised, closed or built on another, not which one it is. A record that publishes no protocol list at all appears on none of these pages (sixteen on file).
