VPN Access

VPN, short for Virtual Private Network, is a network that is constructed by using public wires to connect nodes. For example, there are a number of systems that enable you to create networks using the Internet as the medium for transporting data. These systems use encryption and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted. For Southwest employees the VPN allows connections to Outlook and shared drives through the College's firewall.

NOTE: NOTE: YOU MUST BE A SOUTHWEST EMPLOYEE TO ACCESS THE VPN. THIS SERVICE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS.
