Kerio VPN Client
Kerio VPN Client is a virtual private network utility from Kerio that installs a preference pane in macOS System Settings, allowing users to configure and manage VPN connections to corporate networks and servers. It acts as a system-level network extension that intercepts and routes traffic through a secure tunnel. The preference pane provides the interface for authentication, connection status monitoring, and VPN settings configuration.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionKerio VPN Client includes a system extension (preference pane and kernel-level VPN driver) that must be updated through the Kerio VPN Client application itself, not through System Settings or the App Store. The component is not separately installable — updating the parent Kerio VPN Client application is what updates the preference pane and underlying drivers. Check the Kerio support website or your company's IT department for the latest version of Kerio VPN Client that supports Apple Silicon Macs natively. Be aware that Kerio VPN drivers have faced compatibility challenges with recent macOS releases and Apple's kernel extension security policies; if the current version does not work on your Mac, you may need to contact Kerio support or your IT team to confirm Apple Silicon compatibility and obtain a version that runs natively. The Intel-only version will cease to function when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), so confirming native Apple Silicon support well before that date is important.
