OpenVPN FAQ
What is a VPN and how does OpenVPN function?
A VPN creates an encrypted tunnel to securely connect devices to business assets over unsecured networks. OpenVPN masks IP addresses, encrypts traffic, enables remote access to network resources and global branch connectivity, and offers zero trust VPN options.
