A Glossary

VPN

 

A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, is a technology that allows for a secure and private connection between two or more devices over the internet. It creates a private network within a public network, such as the internet, and encrypts all the data that is transmitted between the devices.

In the context of managed IT services, VPNs are often used to provide remote access to company networks and resources. This allows employees to work from anywhere while still being able to securely access company files and data.

VPNs are also used to improve security by protecting data from hackers and other malicious actors who may be trying to intercept it as it is transmitted over the internet. By encrypting the data, VPNs make it much more difficult for anyone to intercept and read the information.

Overall, VPNs are an important tool for managed IT services as they provide secure and private connections over the internet, allowing for remote access and improved security for company data.
