Connections without cost.
 The world
has changed over the last couple of decades. Instead of simply
dealing with local or regional concerns, many businesses now have to
think about global markets
and logistics. Many companies have facilities spread out across the
country or around the world, and there is one thing that all of them
need: A way to maintain fast, secure and reliable communications wherever their offices are.
Until fairly recently, this has meant the use of leased lines to maintain a wide area network (WAN). A WAN
had obvious advantages over a public network like the Internet when it
came to reliability, performance and security. But maintaining a WAN,
particularly when using leased lines, can become quite expensive and
often rises in cost as the distance between the offices increases.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) takes advantage of the cost savings and availability of the Internet to create secure, private connections between two or more locations. It is essentially a tunnel through the Internet with only your offices at each end.
Using a Skywire router, you can create private connections between remote locations enabling each side to be part of the same network. The Skywire router can both connect to other Skywire routers or it can connect to the majority of third-party VPN routers such as a Cisco device.
While most VPN products only support one method of creating these secure tunnels, the Skywire routers support two: IPSEC and SSL. Additionally, when connecting two SkyWire routers with our optimized VPN service, significant performance improvements are achieved through the use of proprietary protocols and compression techniques. The advantages of which are best applied to poor performing network connections such as satellite or cellular links.
Here are some features of the SkyWire's VPN capabilities:
Supports both IPSEC & SSL VPN tunnels
