A Virtual Private Network (VPN) allows you connect computers together from widely different locations, just as if they were physically in the same place and connected to the same Local Area Network (LAN).

VPN technology allows your company to have a single secure network to connect different offices together, or to connect your home office to your workplace, or even to connect notebook PCs and PDAs while on the road.

Once connected you can share files, share printers, send e-mails and instant messages, in fact anything you would normally be able to do if you were connected to the same LAN.

Here at Digital Design we use VPN technology to seamlessly connect our various domestic and international locations. We can send documents to printers in another office, operate remote PCs via our Remote Control for PCs software, and even talk to each other toll free using VoIP.

Instead of having expensive leased lines or dedicated data circuits, VPN uses the internet and special VPN routers. Your private network data is encrypted by one router, sent over the internet to another VPN router, decrypted, and then sent to its final destination.

VPN equipment is commonly available, however the setup and configuration can be a nightmare.

At Digital Design we have been running our own VPN for a number of years. The health of our network is critical to our company, and we have already learned all the dos and don'ts necessary to run a reliable VPN connecting multiple domestic and international locations.

This places us in an ideal position to design and install a VPN custom built for your needs.
