Virtual Private Network (VPN) Services

Providing secure access to corporate resources has grown into a critical requirement for enterprises. The Internap® Managed Security Services (MSS) portfolio offers a complete line of Managed Virtual Private Networks (VPN) Services that fulfills business requirements for IPSec-based Site-to-Site VPNs as well as clientless SSL Remote Access VPNs.

VPNs are logical, private networks built over a shared or public infrastructure such as the Internet. Utilizing the Internet and Managed VPN service from Internap allows businesses to enjoy the same security, reliability and manageability, as they do in their own T1, Frame Relay or ATM-based private networks. In addition, VPNs allow the end customer to leverage the cost advantages of a shared network.

A few years ago there were only limited options to extend the availability of the enterprise's network beyond the boundaries of the corporate central site, providing secure access to all remote users was extremely costly. The emphasis on productivity requires all users, whether working in a remote office or hotel room, the need for easy access to corporate resources to accomplish their job and maintain productivity. Also, corporate business partners and customers increasingly need real-time access to corporate resources and applications. Internap Managed Security Services, which includes Juniper NetScreen appliance, offer a complete line of IPSec- and SSL-based VPNs to enable enterprises to provide their offices and users secure, ubiquitous availability to the corporate network to support the overall success of the business.
