Teltonika - Safe and reliable remote communication with the office

The global explosion of COVID-19 at the beginning of 2020 brought new, unnoticed before now, challenges to the world economies. This is undoubtedly the world's largest experiment of the Work-From-Home type (Work from Home), which might not have been possible without the significant advances in technology and communications that have taken place over the past decades.
However, even with widespread broadband and mobile access, companies need to take additional steps to ensure that their employees are not only connected to the Internet, but also have the appropriate security features and equipment. This is necessary to ensure that the solutions used can prevent cyber security threats.

Companies, which mainly employ office workers, take numerous measures to ensure that the information and systems they work with are safe from cyber threats. The most effective way to do this is to make sure that employees do not have access to the company's internal systems and databases. Naturally, most work related tasks require access to these systems.
Most professionals know that the right solution is to configure encrypted virtual private networks (VPNs) to allow secure connection from outside the enterprise network. However, this is only part of the solution as most home users connect to the Internet using routers provided by their ISPs, which may not be able to provide this connection. In addition, there is an increased risk of downtime in wired or wireless networks, for example due to maintenance.

To understand the solution, we need to break it down into a few simple elements.
- Firstly, professional routers such as RUT240 by Teltonika Networks, presented in the above topology, can minimize the risk of Internet access downtime by providing connectivity via LTE 4G mobile network.
- RUT240 can be used as a standalone product or as support for an existing home router.
- In addition, RUT240 supports eight different VPN services, including OpenVPN, IPsec, Stunnel and others, making it an ideal choice when an encrypted VPN connection is required between the company's internal systems and remote employees.
- With Ethernet interface and Wi-Fi RUT240 you can configure to connect to multiple devices such as PCs, laptops, VOIP phones and printers, ensuring that all devices are connected to the Internet.
- Additionally RUT240 is fully compatible with the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS), which not only enables remote monitoring and management of the device, but also allows for remote configuration of the router. This gives IT support teams the ability to quickly configure and manage a large number of devices, without the need to send staff to the site of the malfunction.

- Speed of deployment - RUT240 has Auto APN, which makes configuration of the mobile connection extremely quick and easy, just insert the SIM card and the router will apply the necessary settings.
- Professionalism - The RUT240 is supported by RutOS and has been designed for industrial applications, offering many network protocols and security functions that meet the requirements of complex corporate networks.
- Ease of use - all functions of RUT240 are easy to configure thanks to a convenient WebUI interface, available from a web browser and an extensive configuration database, available here.

The RUT240 Teltonika Networks is one of the most successful professional mobile routers because it is small, reliable, highly functional and available at a reasonable price. It has been tested in the most complex industrial IoT and M2M solutions. Combined with the advanced features of Teltonika RMS, it is perfect for remote connection of your home office with your company.
