What
is a VPN?
Short for virtual private network,
a
network that is constructed by using public
wires to connect nodes. For example, there are a
number of systems that enable you to create networks
using the
Internet as the medium for transporting data.
These systems use
encryption and other
security mechanisms to ensure that only
authorized users can access the network and that
the data cannot be intercepted.
