The article presents the method of multiple initial connections aimed at enhancing the information security of peer-to-peer virtual private networks. This method ensures the simultaneous establishment of several initial connections through intermediate nodes, which complicates data interception and minimizes the risks of connection compromise. The paper describes the algorithmic foundation of the method and demonstrates its application using a network of four nodes. An analysis of packet routing is conducted, including the stages of packet formation, modification, and transmission. To calculate the number of unique routes and assess data interception risks, a software package registered with the Federal Service for Intellectual Property was developed. The software utilizes matrix and combinatorial methods, providing high calculation accuracy and analysis efficiency. The proposed method has broad application prospects in peer-to-peer networks, Internet of Things systems, and distributed control systems.
