    VNS3 PeopleVPN - Remote Work Solution

     Info

    Overview

    Cohesive Networks is offering VNS3 PeopleVPN edition for free in response to the Coronavirus outbreak.

    As more and more businesses decide to suspend travel and close offices in response to the COVID-19 spread, the global workforce is becoming increasingly distributed. Cohesive Networks wants to help make this transition easier for business teams that don't already have a secure remote work solution or need an alternative that is easy to set up and works. This product will be listed in this marketplace for free until at least September 15th, 2020 (possibly longer depending on the coronavirus response). Once the virus has been contained, we will contact all users to discuss if subscription extensions are needed or commercial agreements are appropriate (target hourly price of this offering after coronavirus is $0.25/hour).

    • Remote Access VPN - Connect up to 10 remote team members via secure and private VPN tunnels.
    • Easy to Configure - VM launches and preconfigures for quick and easy deployment. Simply distribute the VPN credentials to your remote team and you're ready to go.
    • Free(Zero Premium) - Cohesive Networks will not make any money from VNS3 PeopleVPN during the COVID-19 outbreak and we are committed to supporting any and all users during this challenging time.

    Highlights

    • Connect up to 10 team members for free (Zero Premium) - the most widely used VPN engine (OpenVPN) plus WAN optimization provides a quick, easy, and reliable path to secure remote access.
    • Connect from any client - supports client connections from all platforms including Windows, macOS, Linux (32-bit and 64-bit), and Mobile OS (Android and iOS).
    • Future proof your network deployment - all VNS3 controllers (including this free PeopleVPN edition) can be upgraded live to support the full VNS3 feature set for securing your cloud edge.

    Amazon Machine Image (AMI)

    An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

    Version release notes

    VNS3 versions 6.2.9 and 6.6.8 are now available with critical security updates. These releases address vulnerabilities discovered through Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative program and include important system upgrades. The underlying OS has been updated incorporating security patches for various libraries and components. Specific fixes address ZDI-CAN-24160, ZDI-CAN-24176, ZDI-CAN-24177, and ZDI-CAN-24178, resolving issues where improperly parsed input could potentially allow for remote code execution (require access to port 8000 to be exploited). We've also enhanced our API and UI parsing code to improve security further. While VNS3 instances with TCP port 8000 locked down are not vulnerable to outside attacks, we strongly recommend all customers upgrade to these latest versions for optimal security.

    For more information, see the VNS3 Release Notes - https://docs.cohesive.net/docs/vns3/release-notes/ .

    Cohesive Networks support staff is available to help with your deployment or upgrade. Create a ticket on our support system (http://support.cohesive.net ) for assistance.

    If setup in the US region, can people from China and Russia connect to it? It seems that it use OpenVPN protocols.
