Sophos Certified Engineer Practice Exam

The role of the Sophos SSL VPN for remote access is to allow secure, encrypted connections for remote users to internal resources. This technology establishes a secure tunnel between the remote user's device and the corporate network, ensuring that data transmitted over the internet is encrypted and protected from potential eavesdropping or interception.

By leveraging SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocols, the Sophos SSL VPN creates a secure session that helps to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of data as it traverses less secure networks, such as the internet. This is particularly important for remote users who need access to sensitive internal resources, such as enterprise applications, file shares, or databases. The secure connection not only safeguards the data but also enables remote users to work as if they were physically located within the organization's network, enhancing productivity and enabling secure access to necessary resources.
