These are two questions that are asked of our engineers at IT Solutions Team. A VPN is an acronym for a virtual private network. This means that your private network is extended across public networks i.e. the Internet enabling users to securely send and receive data as if they were directly connected to the private network.
As for question how this will help my company? VPNs allow for data to be encrypted, and allows employees the ability to connect to a certain computer from different offices in a secure way.
