VPN Providers
----------
I am not a technical person and know very little about VPN's other than my organization has provided us with one.

I have several friends who would like to have access to a VPN. Because I know so little about this I am hoping that someone might be able to help me or direct me to a source that could help me find businesses that offer use of a VPN to the general public.

Sincerely,
Mark

Public VPN
----------
What do you mean by a public VPN?
VPNs by their very nature are not public.
I'm not sure what your asking, please clarify.

Sorry I wasn't too clear.

By "public" I didn't mean that anyone could access it.

By public I meant companies who offer VPN services to the public, i.e., for a fee I can contract with "X" company who will then provide me with access to a VPN.

I hope that's clearer.

Managed VPN Providers
----------
There is a list of these providers under the the Products & Services category. Go to Services and then to Managed and you'll find a list of companies that offer Managed VPN solutions. Based on your description, this is what you are asking about.

I was just reviewing the VPN news for today, 4/15/02 and I noticed that Network Magazine announced their winners for Products of the Year. The winner for VPN Services is Aventail.Net Managed Services.
