A trusted VPN solution for research and education institutions worldwide
Sometimes, access to university resources can be restricted to on-campus networks due to licensing terms, access controls and security policies. This limits availability for students, researchers and staff working remotely, travelling or based offsite. Institutions looking to extend secure access to their digital resources can benefit from adopting eduVPN, a solution designed specifically for the Research and Education (R&E) community.
Why should your organisation offer eduVPN?
eduVPN is a secure, Virtual Private Network (VPN) service built specifically for the R&E community. Already adopted by more than 200 institutions in over 20 countries, eduVPN enables users – students, researchers and staff – to securely connect to the internet and access resources, no matter where they are in the world.
Besides providing secure and encrypted internet access, eduVPN can also enable your organisation to give users off-campus access to restricted services and resources, such as:
