Virtual Private Network

Proficient Telecom's VPN services enable you to securely interconnect PCs and servers in offices across town, across the country or even by the lake.

VPN connections are set up as secure "tunnels" over the Internet, rather than as connections over dedicated point-to-point circuits.

Unlike data sent over typical Internet transmissions, which can be visible to anyone with the right software and equipment, data sent over a VPN is "wrapped" using a special technology that makes it unreadable by anyone who does not have the proper "key" to unlock the encryption.

VPNs let you work securely just as if the sending and receiving PCs were on the same local area network.

Proficient's VPN service benefits your business by:

• Enabling you to more easily share data among offices.
• Enabling telecommuters to access file servers and printers from their home office.
• Saving you hundreds to thousands of dollars per month compared to the cost of dedicated point-to-point circuits.
