Access your home network from anywhere in the world with Firewalla VPN

"A virtual private network, or VPN, is an encrypted connection over the Internet from a device to a network. The encrypted connection helps ensure that sensitive data is safely transmitted. It prevents unauthorized people from eavesdropping on the traffic and allows the user to conduct work remotely."

Firewalla VPN Server allows you to easily set up an encrypted connection from anywhere in the world to your home.  Although you are outside on a public network, your security protection is just as if you were at home. 

Connect to Firewalla VPN = You are at Home

Balancing security and accessibility is always tricky.  Some of our users noticed that when they close down all open ports for security purposes, they are running into other problems.  For example, not being able to access the home security camera or file server while outside.  Do you have to re-open ports on the router and make your home network vulnerable? 

No, not really!  Firewalla VPN can take you back to your home network from anywhere in the world.  The Firewalla VPN server is a transport service, and provided by security certificates, it is much more difficult to be attacked than an HTTP service provided by your camera.  It also encrypts all traffic between you and your home network, whatever sites you are surfing or files you are accessing are kept private, won't be snooped by anyone in between.
