A virtual private network, or VPN, is an encrypted connection over the Internet from a device to a network, such as the LBNL network. The encrypted connection helps ensure that sensitive data is safely transmitted and prevents unauthorized people from eavesdropping on the traffic and allows the user to conduct work remotely. The VPN also makes the device logically appear on the LBNL network, this can be useful to access resources that are restricted to the LBNL network.
