VPN
A
Virtual Private Network
(
VPN
) is a private network that interconnects remote (and often
geographically separate) networks through primarily public communication infrastructures such as the
Internet. VPNs provide security through tunneling protocols and security procedures such as
encryption. For example, a VPN could be used to securely connect the branch offices of an
organization to a head office network through the public Internet.
