What are the benefits of using a Site-To-Site VPN?
Hello. My company has more than one physical location, and therefore I want to invest in buying a Site-To-Site VPN which can be used across all of the locations. I have heard that a Site-To-Site VPN would be suitable for this, as it provides a singular corporate WAN which supports cross-site communication in a way that is secure. Is there anyone who knows which benefits this type of VPN could bring to my employees and the company? Responses would be appreciated.Asked 7 months ago

Can I improve my remote office's IT support by investing in a VPN?
Hi, I'm hoping to get my IT team a secure way to support the rest of the co-workers in a hybrid working position. The main dilemma is that their connection isn't encrypted, and if the IT guys hop onto someone's computer to troubleshoot from another location, it leaves their computers wide open. I'm unsure whether a premium VPN would be the answer. Asked 8 months ago
