Keep VPN Networks Available With NS1

Remote work has been advised by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and it's one of the policies that nearly half (46%) of organizations are implementing because of the COVID-19 epidemic*. Remote work has been growing even before the COVID-19 crisis. Today enterprises rely on VPNs to provide seamless connectivity to their remote employees without compromising security, but what happens when these VPNs become less performant due to a historically unprecedented demand?

Are Stressed VPN Networks Adversely Impacting Your Business?

VPNs are usually designed to provide remote access to a small proportion of corporate employees. However, some companies now have 100% of employees working remotely, which is overwhelming VPNs and degrading performance. Some users are not able to connect, while others wait an excessive amount of time for a connection.
