Network Security

Hello guys,

Please what is a method any large WAN can employ to prevent communications from being compromised while transferred on the internet?

Thanks

Encrypt it. All internet traffic is accessible. If it isn't encrypted (ssl/https, vpn, pgp, etc) then it is capable of being easily compromised.

You would have VPN servers on both sides of the WAN to create the encrypted tunnel.

Ok, thanks a lot guys. :)

You can set up a VPN connection, and to really make sure every connections in and out of the WAN is secure you can set-up a Intrusion Detection System(IDS) to tighten up network security.
You may also use only allow secure protocols(https) to traverse to your network.
