Cbeyond SecureVPN

Share data across your locations.

If your business has more than one office location, Cbeyond SecureVPN makes it safe and simple to move data throughout your business. You can even access your VPN remotely. So all of your offices run at maximum efficiency.

Features & Benefits

SecureVPN On-Net
Cbeyond SecureVPN On-Net connects multiple sites that are served by Cbeyond. It creates a secure network for sharing files and data. And with speeds of up to 4.5 Mbps, you can use complex, data intensive applications across the VPN.

Every on-network site connected to the VPN will be able to see the resources of the other connected sites, just as though they were wired to a single physical network. SecureVPN eliminates the need for multiple dedicated lines, PVCs and on-site routers. The VPN is completely private and does not use the public Internet for office-to-office data transfer, so your data is secure.

SecureVPN Off-Net
If not every location of your business is served by Cbeyond, you can still stay connected with SecureVPN Off-Net. By creating pre-defined, protected tunnels through the public Internet using sophisticated encryption and authentication logic, you can exchange information with remote office locations with the same security and reliability as your on-network communications.

SecureVPN Remote User
Rely on SecureVPN Remote User to equip your employees with on-demand, remote access to your Cbeyond VPN. SecureVPN Remote User allows individuals to access their corporate information while out of the office, using their existing Internet connection client. No special software is needed, so set up is a cinch.
