the claim

OpenVPN is considered secure for VPN connections.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
6 sources for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that OpenVPN is considered secure for VPN connections?

Partly. Several sources treat OpenVPN as a secure VPN technology with strong encryption and TLS, while one source criticizes it as complex with a large attack surface. None directly settles whether OpenVPN is generally 'considered secure'; the evidence only partially covers the claim.
