When a company has several offices located at different places and a whole lot of workers always on the move, calling over wired lines or making long distance calls may turn out to be quite expensive. Apart from that, such modes of communication are likely to pose considerable risks to the network security of any organization.
A more cost effective as well as secure option for remote access today is to get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) installed. While this could either be a remote access or a site-to-site (intranet-based) type for communication with own offices and mobile workers, a site-to-site (extranet-based) VPN can also be used for connecting to an outside company with close ties.
The Virtual Private Network uses a public telecommunication network, such as Internet, to allow the end users for accessing the main network of the organization. VPN employs virtual connections originating from the main network to route through the Internet to the remote sites thereby helping greatly in protecting the remotely deployed computers from illegal incursions.
