VPN

From the Virtual Office page, admin users with sufficient permissions can select virtual private network (VPN) or zero trust network access (ZTNA) for their devices. VPNs establish a secure and encrypted connection over the internet between devices and a remote server. This connection makes it difficult for hackers or third parties to intercept or access the data being transmitted.

Admin users can select the VPN encryption strength. For more information, see Change the encryption strength.

VPN is available on macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS.

Different VPN policies can be set for each of your devices. The VPN policy options include:

1. Default VPN policy : Traffic from protected devices doesn't go through the VPN.
2. Split-tunneling VPN : Devices with this policy use the VPN to access and encrypt your virtual office, as well as any external resources that have been added to the include list.
3. Full-tunneling VPN : Devices with this policy use the VPN to access and encrypt all networking including regular internet traffic except for any external resources that have been added to the exclude list.
