VPN

An IoT (Internet of Things) VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a network security service that provides a secure connection between an IoT device and the internet. It encrypts the internet connection of the device, ensuring that any data transmitted and received by the device is kept private and secure.

IoT devices are often connected to the internet and can transmit and receive data, making them vulnerable to cyber attacks. By using an IoT VPN, organizations can secure their IoT devices and protect their data from being accessed by unauthorized parties. An IoT VPN can also be used to access the internet securely from an IoT device, such as a smart home device or a wearable device.

There are many different IoT VPN solutions available, and the choice of which one to use will depend on the specific needs of the organization and the types of IoT devices being used. Some IoT VPN solutions are designed for use with specific types of devices, such as smart home devices or industrial IoT devices, while others are more general-purpose and can be used with any type of IoT device.
