A VPN, or virtual private network, creates a secure connection between a device and a network. Remote access solutions like GoToMyPC can be more secure than VPN tools. Like GoToMyPC, remote access software can enforce strict access controls and device checks. We also offer multi-factor authentication (MFA) for enhanced protection that VPNs can’t always match. MFA provides a second layer of security — outside of your username and password — to protect the privacy of your credentials when logging into your account.
