Virtual Private Network (VPN)
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet. VPN relationships are established between a VPN client and a VPN server on the Internet making the public network appear to be virtually the same as a private network to VPN members.
Duo authentication
NOTE: Duo Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required to authenticate and connect to VPN sessions. Duo is a secure mobile authentication app for quick, push notification-based approval to verify your user's identity with a smartphone or other device. Learn more about Duo
