Description
Remote network access is accomplished by leveraging common communication protocols and establishing a remote connection. These connections will occur over the public Internet. Remote access is any access to an organizational information system by a user (or an information system) communicating through an external, non-organization-controlled network (e.g., the Internet). Examples of remote access methods include dial-up, broadband, and wireless. Using cryptography ensures confidentiality of the remote access connections.
