Benefits of VPN

A VPN can benefit the organization in the following ways:

• Eliminating the need for long-distance leased lines: Organizations need to rent network capacity, such as T1/E1 lines, to achieve full, secured network connectivity between their office locations. A VPN would allow the user to log in to the private network using the public network, so there is no requirement for the company to procure a leased line. These connections can be tapped into the virtual network through much cheaper internet-connectivity options, such as broadband connections.
• Reducing long-distance call charges: A VPN would also enable the user to use VoIP services in a secured manner, thereby skipping logging in to the remote-access server by the business travelers who need to access the company's intranet. For example, with  an internet VPN, clients need to connect to the nearest service provider's access point.
