A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a
public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the
Internet, to provide remote offices or individual users
with secure access to their organization's network. A
virtual private network can be contrasted with an expensive
system of owned or leased lines that can only be used by
one organization. The goal of a VPN is to provide the
organization with the same capabilities, but at a much
lower cost.
