Remote access

In essence it refers to workers being able to access their organization’s network, from any or from a designated location. A dial up connection through desktop, notebook, or handheld computer over regular telephone lines or ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) is a common method of remote access. The latest technologies use wireless, cable modem, and DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) for remote access.
