Info

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) creates a secure, encrypted connection between your off-campus device and the campus network.

By signing into the KU Virtual Private Network service you agree to abide by Koç University's Information Security Policy. When you sign in to a KU Internet connection, you are leaving a digital footprint that can be traced back to you. It is highly recommend that you log out of or disconnect from the KU VPN service when it is no longer needed.

When you are working offsite or are not connected to Jayhawk wireless, you will need to use KU’s VPN, KU Anywhere, to access the KU network remotely. Once you connect with the VPN, all the resources that are available to you while on campus will be available to you remotely. To get started, you’ll need to download the VPN software on your machine. Find additional information at technology.ku.edu/software/kuanywhere.
