Virtual Private Network (VPN) Service provides a method of securing connections to HKUST Network from off-campus using the public Internet.

Key Benefits

• When you are using a VPN connection, you will be assigned a HKUST IP address. This allows you to access protected resources on HKUST Network that are retricted from off-campus access.
• Use the VPN client software to secure wireless connections to HKUST Network when using pubic Wi-Fi networks.
