Data Communications: Virtual Private Network (VPN)
A virtual private network (VPN) is a computer network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure such as the Internet to provide remote offices or individual users with secure access to their organization's network. It aims to avoid an expensive system of owned or leased lines that can be used by only one organization. Hi-Tech Enterprises can set up a VPN for your business to allow you the freedom to access your office from virutally anywhere.

VPN technologies have myriad protocols, terminologies and marketing influences that define them. For example, VPN technologies can differ in:
-
The protocols they use to tunnel the traffic
-
The tunnel's termination point, i.e., customer edge or network provider edge
-
Whether they offer site-to-site or remote access connectivity
-
The levels of security provided
-
The OSI layer they present to the connecting network, such as Layer 2 circuits or Layer 3 network connectivity
Secure VPNs use cryptographic tunneling protocols to provide confidentiality by blocking intercepts and packet sniffing, allowing sender authentication to block identity spoofing, and provide message integrity by preventing message alteration.
