Valerie wants to connect one of her company’s remote locations back to the organization’s main network. What type of solution can she use for a persistent connection between the networks that will securely tunnel data across a commodity Internet connection?

An IPSec VPN is a common option for organizations that need to create a secure VPN tunnel between two locations. A VPN connection is established by network devices at both locations and traffic is able to travel securely over commodity Internet connections. TLS VPNs are more commonly used for individuals to connect to an organization’s network. Web proxies are used to filter and control web traffic, not for this purpose. 802.1X is used to authenticate to networks and protect them from unauthorized connections, not to create secure, multisite tunnels.
