What VPN and private network are ? - Part of ICT system
To understand what a virtual private network is, let's first think of what we mean by a private network. Many large organizations are geographically widespread.

Typically a large organization needs to join up its LANs for data communications. If the only data that needed to be transmitted were emails, then using the internet might be a satisfactory way to do this, however, large organizations have more complex data requirements than that. They may have servers holding files that need to be accessed by people throughout the organization, but which need to be inaccessible to people outside the organization. Ideally, then the organization would have a private network which is a data network for the exclusive use of the organization.
