Virtual Private Networks
Today, there is a requirement for organizations to consider - how to attach remote users to the corporate LAN. The common thing most corporations have done is to become a "mini ISP" - they bring in phone lines, modem banks, and assign 800 numbers to allow remote users to dial into the network. There’s two pieces of bad news: The first is that this is
expensive, and the second is that there are technologies out there that will discover the phone numbers, user names, and passwords … automatically - it’s just a matter of time. Fortunately, there’s products and technologies that can help - some VPN products have been available since 1994, and we can help you separate facts from marketing hype.
