VPN Management| Work from Home| Telecommunicate

Need a virtual private network (VPN) but don’t know where to start? Dallas Small businesses have several options to give remote workers secure connections back to the corporate networks: Internet Protocol security (IPsec) VPNs and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPNs.

The IPsec is the most popular and least expensive VPN, but it is also more difficult to manage. That’s because IPsec VPNs, which use the Data Encryption for security, require IT managers to install and configure software on telecommuters’ computers. (SSL VPNs don’t require special software.) Teleworkers simply access corporate resources through their Web browsers but this method is less functional to the end user.

Another difference between the two is that IPsec VPNs allow access to all company applications, including custom software, whereas SSL VPNs are limited to applications that offer Web-based access. IPsec VPNs also offer more options for limiting access to sensitive information.
