Answer to Question 1

AVPN runs over a private IP network, so it is more affordable than leased lines, and it is secure. VPNs use tunneling technology and encryption to keep data secure as they are transmitted.
Tunneling creates a temporary connection between a remote computer and a local data center, which blocks access to anyone trying to intercept messages sent over that link. Encryption scrambles the message before it is sent and then decodes it at the receiving end. While in transit, the message cannot be read or changed.

1. Remote access VPNs give remote employees a way to access an enterprise's intranet securely by dialing a specific ISP, generally a large one with local telephone numbers in many cities. The ISP establishes a secure tunnel through its network to the corporate network, where the user can access e-mail and the intranet.
2. Remote office VPNs give enterprises a way to create a secure private network with remote offices.
3. Extranet VPNs give enterprises a way to conduct e-business with trading partners, suppliers, and customers.
