Price: from $2K. POA/per user

Country NSW network engineers Veritech have bundled some open source remote VPN protocols into a USB key to offer an easy solution to remote access. Plug the key into a USB port and software automatically opens to prompt you through the connection wizard. In no time you’re connected to your network, ready to load up your remote desktop at work or home as if you were sitting in front of it.

Because the software stays on the key you can use it in any Internet-connected computer and you’ll stay connected until you close the software, even if you unplug the key. A bundled VPN client to get you the rest of the way (the Veritoken just provides the connection) would be an improvement, but the Veritoken is a good start when even logging on remotely is so convoluted.
