The virtual private network (VPN) is a concept that
blurs the line between a public and private network.
VPNs allow you to create a secure, private network over a public network such as the Internet. They can be created using software, hardware, or a combination of the two that creates a secure link between peers over a public network. This is done through encryption, authentication, packet tunneling, and firewalls.[4]
