Frequently Asked Question

A VPN creates an encrypted connection between a device and your office network, or between two offices, over the internet.

You may need one if staff work remotely and must reach files or systems that are not in the cloud, if you have more than one branch, or if you need to protect traffic on public Wi-Fi.

A VPN must be set up properly with strong sign-in, ideally with multi-factor authentication, and kept up to date. If you mainly use cloud services such as Microsoft 365, you may not need one.
