LogMeIn Hamachi is a virtual private network (VPN) application developed and released in 2004 by Alex Pankratov. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is capable of establishing direct links between computers that are behind network address translation (NAT) firewalls without requiring reconfiguration (when the user's PC can be accessed directly without relays from ...
