While cloud services dominate much of today\u2019s IT infrastructure, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) still play a vital role in providing encrypted pathways between users and the resources they need. Among the most established VPN protocols is IPsec, a network-layer technology that has helped secure remote connections for decades. This article explores the foundational concepts of VPNs, the principles behind IPsec, its structure, strengths, weaknesses, and where it fits..."}
