VPNs for your business
Remote access
This provides your remote workers with access to the company’s information over a secure VPN tunnel. Users are provided with specialist software on their computing equipment to ensure that authentication and encryption are seamless.
Site-to-site VPN
If you have remote offices, we can provide a VPN link which connects the Local Area Networks in each office with the central server environment. Our experienced engineers will work with you to provide the best fit in terms of the software available in the market to have your site-to-site VPN working at optimum performance.
VPNs and scalability
A VPN is wholly scalable so it can grow as your operations grow. As you staff up with new offices and/or remote employees it is both a simple and cost-effective process to add the new people to the VPN. This is relevant both across the country and across the World as the technology makes use of readily available public networks. A simple connection to a local internet source can be all that is needed.
Secure sockets layer VPN
A growing requirement for many businesses is a Secure Sockets Layer VPN which allows remote users to connect to company information using a web browser and no specialist software. This requirement is becoming ever-more popular as handset and tablet technology becomes more sophisticated and prevalent in the workplace.
