Overview
Cisco Anyconnect Download
To access the university's network from off campus, use the Virtual Private Network (VPN). Virtual Private Networking is a method of providing a more secure network connection from public or untrusted networks. When a VPN connection is established, it creates an encrypted communication path between your computer and the VPN server. VPN provides increased security and the same level of access as a direct connection to the campus network. This helps to protect your network traffic from many types of common network attacks, which could be used to expose your personal information. Because the VPN server is hosted within the Texas A&M University firewall, a VPN connection will also provide access to university resources that are not typically available from non-TAMU connections. This service is offered at no charge.
