Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Using the Internet to Extend the Network

Today, many small to medium-sized businesses no longer have the simple task of dealing with a local workforce. Instead, they have to think about the logistics of managing a distributed workplace that includes mobile sales people, telecommuters, remote offices, and global office locations.  

Consequently, companies are now faced with the challenge of finding a way to maintain fast, secure, reliable and cost-effective remote access to network resources, wherever their people are located.  With the advent of affordable broadband Internet access technologies, businesses are turning to the Internet and Virtual Private Networking as a means of extending their own networks.
