A VPN is a private network that encrypts and transmits data while it travels from one place to another on the internet. We assist departments with setup and configuration of departmental Virtual Private Networks (VPN).
Benefits
VPN can mask things like IP address, location, search history and keep them from being tracked by websites, internet browsers, cable companies, internet service providers and others.
A VPN also provides security by protecting you from anyone trying to access your personal information and other data you send and receive.
