What is a SSL VPN? A 'Secure Socket Layer Virtual Private Network" is a technology that will allow college employees to go to a web page, log-in, and get access to a number of network resources and services that were until now only available when using a college computer on campus.
Based on the direction received from of an "Outside Access Working Group' in the Autumn of 2010, we are now in the process of implementing a system that will enable access for faculty and staff (based on their role and need) to the network resources and college services listed below. Phase 1 of this project is complete, phase 2 will be completed by July 1.
This is a new technology to us, and we know there will be some kinks to be worked out. As always, contact our Support Centre by phone (403-529-3899) or log a call via email CallCentre@mhc.ab.ca to report problems and get assistance in using this service.
