[Kalanidhi]

Hi all,

I mainly through the Firewall technology routing Device coupled with tunneling technology, encryption agreement and security keys to be achieved, sufficient to ensure the employees secure access to corporate networks. But if a business need to be extended to a VPN remote access, we should note that these pairs of corporate networks, either directly or always-on connectivity will be the main objective of hackers. I want to know that how to set VPN through the firewall. Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

There are some network administrators believe that the establishment of firewalls for network and provide their employees with VPN, so that they can tunnel through an encrypted dial-up access to corporate network is secure. These views are wrong. Home office is good, but from the safety point of view, it is a great threat, because the majority of companies use security software does not provide protection for home computers. Some staff members did just entering a home computer, follow the link through an authorized access to corporate networks. Although, the company's firewall can isolate outside intruders, and to ensure that the main office and home office VPN between the information security. But the problem is that the intruder can be a trusted user access to the network. Therefore, the encrypted tunnel is safe, connection is correct, but that does not mean that the family computer is safe. check and reply.

Hackers to invade home computers of employees needed to detect IP addresses. Statistics show that the use of dial-up connection's IP address almost daily by hackers scan. Therefore, if the home office staff has an uninterrupted connection such as DSL link (usually this connection has a fixed IP address) will make it easier for hackers. Because dial-up connection at every access when they are assigned a different IP address, although it can also be invasive, but relatively more difficult. Once the hackers invaded a home computer, he will be able to remotely run the staff VPN client software. If you need to enter the password, you can remotely log on the keyboard, percussion or view screen, so a hacker can see the employees can see everything. Check and reply.

There must be a corresponding solution to block remote access VPN, security vulnerabilities, so that both staff and the network connection to fully reflect the advantages of VPN, but also will not be a security threat. Personal personal firewall installed on your computer is extremely effective solution that allows illegal intruders can not enter the corporate network. Of course, there are a number of staff available to remotely practical solutions: All remote workers must be approved for use VPN. All remote workers need to have a personal firewall, which not only prevent the computer from being invaded, but also to tell you, the connection has been scanned many times. All the remote workers should have the intrusion detection systems, to provide information on the hacker attacks, a record. All the best.

VPN installation requires password access control procedures, if you ,type your password wrong then the modem to the system administrator alerts. Staff should remember not to go out to the computer on a separate hotel room or a car, do not allow VPN access to corporate network has passed the computer away from your sight. Staff should be made to work a computer with multi-level security protection, such as the screen lock or launch your password. When you choose DSL suppliers should be selected to provide security protection provider. Check and reply.
