> A virtual private network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network, and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network. Applications running across a VPN may therefore benefit from the functionality, security, and management of the private network.

>> Well, Linda and Ivan talked about using VPM's on smart phones at last week's SIG, and after they defined what a VPM is and why to use it, they pretty much covered the other points. They stressed that you should never use WiFi for financial and other security related use on a smart phone, or if you must, to use a VPM app.
