Short for Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol, a technology for creating Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) , developed jointly by MicrosoftCorporation, U.S. Robotics, and several remote access vendor companies, known collectively as the [PPTP] Forum. A [VPN] is a private network of computers that uses the public Internet to connect some nodes. Because the Internet is essentially an open network, the Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol ([PPTP]) is used to ensure that messages transmitted from one VPN node to another are "secure". With [PPTP], users can dial in to their corporate network via the Internet.
