What is Teleworking?

Teleworking by definition is an arrangement between an employee and the employer in which the employee does not commute to their physical work space, but can use the internet and other digital mediums to complete work.

Methods of teleworking include

  • Tunneling - using a secure communications tunnel between a device and a remote access server, usually through a VPN.
  • Portals - a server that offers access to one or more application via a single interface.
  • Direct Application Access - directly connecting and accessing an application without the use of any remote access software.
  • Remote Desktop (RDP or VNC) - remotely control a particular host machine through the internet.
