ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Frequently asked questions
The difference between a Site-to-Site VPN and remote access VPN is simple. Site-to-site VPNs provide a secure VPN connection between two or more Local Area Networks (LANs), often in multiple locations. Remote Access VPNs work simultaneously but connect mobile devices to a remote LAN.
Site-to-Site VPNs connect several LANs securely, whereas Point-to-point (PTP) is a traditional VPN protocol that connects particular devices. Unlike Site-to-Site VPN, PTP is considered a legacy VPN technology that is less secure than modern VPN solutions.
You should use a Site-to-Site VPN when you need to securely connect 2 (or more) different remote office locations or cloud networks. It’s the best solution for businesses with distributed offices that need seamless access to shared resources, such as databases, applications, and internal systems.
The pros of a Site-to-Site VPN include secure, encrypted network connection between multiple offices, seamless access to shared resources, and centralized management of connections. The main con is that in order to establish Site-to-Site connections, you need a 3rd party provider.
While NordVPN is designed for individual users, businesses looking for Site-to-Site VPN capabilities can turn to NordLayer, a solution within the NordVPN family. NordLayer provides secure, business-focused site-to-site VPN functionality, specifically built to meet the needs of companies with multiple locations.
