VPN
VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a secured private network connection built on top of public
telecommunication infrastructures, such as the Internet. VPN has become more prevalent due to
the benefits of scalability, reliability, convenience and security. VPN provides remote offices or
individual users with secure access to their organization's network. There are two types of VPN
access: remote-access VPN (connecting an individual device to a network) and site-to-site VPN
(connecting two networks together). Remote-access VPN allows employees to access their
company's intranet from home or outside the office, and site-to-site VPN allows employees in
geographically separated offices to share one cohesive virtual network. VPN can also be
classified by the protocols used to tunnel the traffic. It provides security through tunneling
protocols: IPSec, SSL, L2TP and PPTP.
