DESCRIPTION
What is Business VPN?
Network security is essential — more so than ever before. That’s why a Virtual Private Network (VPN) for business is now less of an optional extra and more of a requirement.
A VPN is a security solution that provides a tunnel between your organization’s resources and the employees accessing them. In essence, only employees connected to the VPN servers can access company resources on the network. Since this tunnel is encrypted end-to-end, businesses need not worry about unwanted access or visibility into their network — ensuring complete protection and anonymity of all traffic.
NordLayer remote access solution is designed specifically for businesses — allowing you to mitigate risk, facilitate remote work, and protect your company against cyber threats.
IMPORTANCE
Companies with multiple offices in different geographic locations need ongoing access to and use of the corporate network. Wherever their location, users, devices, apps, and data must have the same advanced level of protection. Solutions like Smart Remote Access create secure VPN connections between your network and external devices—easily facilitating remote workers.

A VPN can control access by authenticating and authorizing users. To do this, a VPN first verifies that a person or application is who or what they claim to be. Then, it determines the user’s identity (usually with a password and/or additional multi-factor authentication methods). Finally, the appropriate access levels and permissions associated with the username or IP address are granted.
Modern organizations use many different devices — as such, these devices must be properly protected against data breaches and other threats. By utilizing a business VPN, you can ensure that every connection is secure, no matter if it’s on a phone, laptop, tablet, or desktop.
Some programs need VPN protection, while others can directly access the internet. Split tunneling is an advanced VPN feature that chooses which programs and apps should have an encrypted VPN tunnel and which could benefit from faster speeds and access to local services. This feature reduces traffic overload on HQ servers and company data centers and helps save costs for hardware.
Securely connect your corporate network with its remote offices to communicate and share resources with them as a single network. Unlike a remote access VPN, which connects individual devices or users to an organization's corporate network, a site-to-site VPN is a connection between two or more networks, such as a corporate network and a branch office network.
Ensure data traffic within your company’s network remains secure. Our business VPN protects all traffic with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256-bit encryption — essentially locking the contents of your traffic and making it unreadable to unauthorized parties.
