In summary, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) allows you to connect ''securely'' to a network (i.e. the ODU CS network) and access private network resources that aren't available outside of the network. When you connect to the CS Department VPN, no matter where you are, it is similar to connecting your computer directly to our wireless Internet. For more information in a VPN, please visit [http://www.howstuffworks.com/vpn.htm here].
