Re: how to secure VPN to a SQL server?



From: "Rob R. Ainscough" <robains@xxxxxxxxxxx>

| I have a deployment package that automatically sets up a VPN on a remote
| client PC (public). What I'm concerned about is the client PC obtaining a
| virus and that virus finding its way to our server via the VPN. The client
| PC's do need Internet access & Email access while the VPN is enabled. The
| VPN is used only for communication with the SQL server -- basically a split
| tunnel VPN solution. (TCP/IP settings, Use default gateway on remote
| network is NOT checked)
|
| What are my options?
|
| Thanks, Rob.
|

Install anti virus software on the end nodes of the VPN tunnel.
