MyWorkDrive Awarded FIPS Security Certification
PPTP is Microsoft's VPN implementation, which has been around since Windows NT. Users tend to like using PPTP as it's typically configured on Windows Desktops with a shortcut that remembers username and password for quick access.
With proper name resolution (historically WINS) and now DNS, users can easily browse the network for shares and printers. On the back end, the system administrator configures Windows Server PPTP with the Routing and Remote Access role (RRAS).
While the tools used to manage and deploy PPTP Systems have changed with each new version of Windows it's universally agreed that PPTP is insecure as compared to modern alternatives and adds additional indirect support costs even when upgraded to support SSTP.
