-A virtual private network (VPN) is a private network that interconnects remote (and often geographically separate) networks through primarily public communication infrastructures such as the Internet. VPNs provide security through tunnelling protocols and security procedures such as encryption. For example, a VPN could be used to securely connect the branch offices of an organisation to a head office network through the public Internet. +A virtual private network (VPN) is a private network that connects remote (and often geographically separate) networks through primarily public communication infrastructures such as the Internet.

 There are two main types of VPN: remote-access VPNs and Site-to-site VPNs. Remote-access VPNs allow individual users to connect to a remote network such as roaming salespeople connecting to their company's Intranet. Site-to-site VPNs allow inter-connection of networks of multiple users for example, branch offices to the main company network. There are two main types of VPN: remote-access VPNs and Site-to-site VPNs.
