[Read Me First]: Building or Buying VPNs (Digital Short Cut) Kunjal Trivedi ISBN-10: 1-58720-134-8 ISBN-13: 978-1-58720-134-9 One of the most popular approaches to establishing a secure computing and network environment is the virtual private network (VPN), which enables organizations to use Internet transport securely to connect remote offices and remote users to the main corporate site, thus eliminating expensive dedicated WAN links and modem banks. Furthermore, with the advent of cost-effective, high-bandwidth technologies such as DSL, organizations can use VPNs to reduce their connectivity costs while simultaneously increasing remote connection bandwidth. [Read Me First]: Building or Buying VPNs helps managers and network security engineers understand and evaluate the costs and benefits associated with this fast-growing technology. This Digital Short Cut helps you to evaluate technology choices, such as whether to build or buy VPN services and how to efficiently manage and lower costs of VPN solutions. From the networking professional to the CEO, this Digital Short Cut provides important information on the business strategies behind the technology.
